Concrete materials for teaching and learning should have: (1) the property of being handled in such a way as to conduct a learning situation to the handler or observer, (2) the inherent structure to present to the learner a sequential pattern leading to the abstract, and (3) a specific relation and application to the subject being treated which, at the same time, gives an immediate experience into reality. Concrete materials will enable the child to participate in discovery and develop organization and insight.
