Reversible Design: The board is designed to be used on both sides. One side typically features movable letters for spelling and word formation, while the other side contains numbers and mathematical operators for arithmetic problems.
Movable Tiles: It includes movable tiles or blocks, often made of wood or sturdy laminated fiberboard, that slide along tracks to allow users to arrange letters, numbers, or symbols.
Educational Purpose: The primary purpose of this board was to teach children spelling, word recognition, and basic arithmetic through hands-on manipulation of letters and numbers.
Historical Context: These boards were patented in the early 20th century, with patent dates ranging from 1912 to 1916. The V&A Museum notes
