Touch Point Math

My son is in Kindergarten. They are working on Touch Point Math. I
know nothing about Touch Point Math. Any information about Touch Point
Math will be greatly appreciated.

From what I've seen and read, it's great for computation practice. Very
hands-on, using touchpoints - literally - on a board to give kinesthetic cues.
Eventually, the child transfers the feeling to just being able to compute
without the kinesthetic need. It's highly effective.

This sounds like it would be the same thing as "touch math" - where, for example,
a 3 would have three dots on the number to help the child add the 3 to what ever
other number??

My son is doing touch math in his class also. Does anyone out there have some
good sites for printable worksheets for touch math?? I have been able to find
some good printable worksheets (that I use frequently) but I have been able to
find NONE for touch math.

Thanks yall : )
