Some of the best materials for hands-on learning are manipulative. They are great for children/students learning specific subjects which they can pick up, handle and move around with their own hands.
Teaching can be overwhelming sometimes, so I created these simple manipulatives that you can easily find in your home and do yourself without spending too much time preparing more teaching materials, in sha Allah
For this DIY you have a few options:
1st: USING PRINTER: you will need a printer, paper, laminating sheets, scissors, clear tape and a plastic bottle cap ( the ones on the image are from the British milk – TESCO or ASDA)! – As seen in the pictures below!
2nd: USING PRINTER: you will need a printer, paper, clear tape, scissors and a plastic bottle cap. – As seen in the pictures below
3rd: NO PRINTER: you will need blank circle stickers that you can easily find online and save on printing, clear tape and a plastic bottle cap!
4th: NO PRINTER: draw yourself the circles on a piece of paper and write on the Arabic letters, use laminating sheets or clear tape and scissors! – You don’t need the plastic bottles, you can change for EVA foam craft, a strong craft paper or simple cereal boxes!





You can use these manipulative in different ways such as practice letter or sound recognition, matching letters, I spy games and memory games (print twice)!
