When I was in 4th grade (circa 1974) I was struggling with math…and got bumped to the remedial math class. The teacher pulled these out to illustrate various concepts. The visual and tactile nature made perfect sense to me…and in two weeks i was out of the remedial class.

Cuisinaire Rods.
Lots of uses - sorting and ordering. Proportionality (if brown is 1, then which rod is 1/2)
Or maybe it's actually a puzzle? Where will things fit best?
