What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 14, 2026
StackUps is a tactile math manipulative system from APH that uses a raised-line grid to help students who are blind or have low vision work with place value, counting, and number concepts through touch. The 5x5 inch grid provides a structured surface, and the loop material dots attach via hook-and-loop to stay in place during use — important when a student is exploring by hand rather than by sight. This is a replacement 3-pack of grids and dots for the full StackUps kit (catalog number 1-08960-00), so it assumes you already have the primary product; it won't make sense as a standalone purchase if you're starting fresh. Choking hazard warning applies — the small loop dots mean this is not appropriate for young children who mouth objects.
