[Blindmath] Base ten block symbols

[Lewicki, Maureen]

KC are you the teacher or preparing the materials?

As a TVI, when I do these, I use the word, and show the students the manipulatives. The point of pictures of the blocks is to remind the sighted children of the blocks they have hopefully seen and had hands on time with, so I also make sure my student uses the base 10 blocks at their seat.

If you reproduce the blocks each exercise can go on for pages, and will overwhelm the student. Manipulatives are best.

So I'm looking for advise on Brailling a 4rd grader's math.  What symbols would you use for the thousands cube?
