OISE Library K-12 Manipulatives DatabaseThe OISE Library K-12 Manipulatives Database organizes manipulatives from our collection based on the Ontario Ministry of Education curriculum documents. Collections are organized into subject areas (e.g. Arts, Mathematics, Science & Technology) and strands (e.g. Arts: Music, Arts: Drama).
A manipulative is a tangible object such as a cube, prism, or model that students can use on a hands-on, active way to acquire a deeper understanding of a concept. Other examples include puppets, games, and kits.
OISE Library's Curriculum Resources Collection contains over 600 manipulatives to support K-12 teaching and learning in all subject areas.
