TOMMYHOME Base Ten Blocks Set for 2nd Grade — Place Value Math Manipulatives

Hands-on value with TOMMYHOME Base Ten Blocks

Bring place value to life with a tactile base ten set designed for 2nd grade learners. The plastic pieces invite fingers to explore numbers, making it easier to see how ones, tens, and hundreds fit together. As students move the blocks, they model numbers, compare values, and practice strategies for addition and subtraction without worksheets. The color-coded system helps students quickly identify value and build mental math fluency in a friendly, non-intimidating way.

Whether you’re running a math station, guiding a small group, or supporting home study, this kit offers a low-prep, reusable resource that aligns with core math concepts. The set’s compact storage box keeps pieces organized between lessons, reducing interruptions and keeping focus on the math.

What’s included

• 1 cube for ones
• 10 flats for hundreds
• 20 rods for tens
• 100 units for ones

Practical classroom and home uses

• Ideal for math centers, small-group instruction, or independent practice
• Helps students build number sense from 1 to 999 by constructing base-ten representations
• Supports activities like value comparison, ordering numbers, and number-building games

Durability and safety: The blocks are crafted from safe, non-toxic plastic and built to withstand everyday classroom activity. They’re easier to clean than foam blocks and remain comfortable to handle for small hands.
