How ColorMyMath teaches it

Past nine, color tells you which place a digit lives in. A ten is a triangle of ten dots; the number of triangles is the tens digit, so 34 is three triangles and four loose green dots.

Every page is free and open — nothing to install, no account, and it works on a phone or a classroom board. Every number has its own color: 1 red, 2 orange, 3 yellow, 4 green, 5 blue, 6 purple, 7 brown, 8 pink, 9 cyan, and a number is that many colored dots.
