What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is a replacement foam puzzle piece for the APH Tactile Tangrams Kit — a 6mm thick tactile geometry manipulative used to teach shape recognition, spatial reasoning, and basic math concepts to students who are blind or have low vision. The tangram pieces rely on tactile differentiation (texture and shape) rather than color or visual contrast, making them accessible for students who cannot use standard printed tangram sets. This listing is a single replacement piece, not a complete kit — you'll need to know which specific piece you're replacing before ordering, as tangram sets include multiple distinct shapes. Federal Quota eligible, meaning it can be funded through the APH quota system for students who qualify, which is worth confirming with your state's quota coordinator before purchasing out of pocket.
