What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is the Nemeth Number Board — the tactile grid component from APH's Hundreds Board and Manipulatives set, which teaches place value and number patterns to students who are blind or have low vision. The board uses Nemeth braille code for numbers, allowing students to explore a 10x10 grid of 1–100 through touch rather than visual scanning. This is a replacement part, not a complete kit — it's the board alone, without the manipulative pieces, so it's only useful if you already own the full Hundreds Board set and need to replace a damaged or missing board. At roughly 15×16 inches and under half a pound, it's classroom-sized and durable enough for regular student handling.
