[BlindMath] APH Is Recruiting Field Testers for FlexyCube

[Li Zhou]

Dear all,


    APH Is Recruiting Field Testers for FlexyCube.



    FlexyCube is a tactile manipulative designed to support students who
are blind or have low vision in exploring shapes, practicing tactile
graphic reading skills, and developing spatial concepts. It is an engaging
puzzle game suitable for students of all grade levels, whether or not they
have visual impairments.



    Each FlexyCube consists of twelve plastic tubes connected by an elastic
cord. Students can stretch the cord to flatten the cube and form a wide
range of two-dimensional shapes. The kit includes challenge cards featuring
both large print and tactile graphics, encouraging students to replicate
the shapes depicted on the cards using their cubes (see photo). Multiple
cubes are included in each kit to allow for individual or small group play,
making FlexyCube an ideal activity for classroom centers or recess.
