Dear Amianth,

Thanks for writing to Teacher2Teacher. Did you find the FAQ that 
I mentioned in an earlier reply useful? 

http://mathforum.org/t2t/faq/faq.manipulatives.html

The first link to a T2T discussion on that FAQ asks a similar 
question, "What are the positive and negative aspects of using 
manipulatives, such as Unifix, Cuisenaire Rods, Dienes MAB or 
Mortensen Maths equipment in teaching mathematics for K-6?"

http://mathforum.org/t2t/thread.taco?thread=3678

That question was posed in 2000 and there has been an ongoing
discussion for 5 years.

Please let us know how this helps you!
