Concrete materials are an important aid to understanding in mathematics learning, and nowhere mores than in the learning of early algebra. The use of area-based models (algebra tiles) have been well-established as laying solid conceptual foundations for later learning. A variety of approaches are now available for virtual manipulative, especially using TI-Nspire, but the approach taken here promises to make it quick and easy for teachers to add dynamic algebra tiles to their TI-Nspire documents.

This method makes use of the Polynomial Toolkit contained in the document poly.tns. This document should be placed in the library folder for setting up (but is not required once the document has been created).

The video shows the step-by-step construction of an algebra tiles document.
