Support your students’ understanding of base-10 number structure with the MAB Place Value Posters B&W – a clean, flexible visual resource that models numbers using MAB blocks in easy-to-read tens increments.

These black and white posters represent numbers from 10 to 150 using visual MAB/Base 10 block models. This simple, monochrome format provides the perfect foundational reference for students developing place value skills. Each poster clearly shows the number alongside matching MAB blocks to support students in making visual and numerical connections between tens and ones.

They make an ideal addition to your numeracy wall, small group rotation space or even student desk displays.
