Maths you can touch
The principle of this set is based on the visual representation of numerical orders. Units are represented by individual beads. Once a child collects ten beads, they can exchange them for one ten-rod. The same principle applies further – ten ten-rods correspond to one hundred-plate, and ten hundred-plates can be exchanged for one thousand-block. This maths teaching material enables children not only to see but also to physically manipulate the concept of the decimal system, which makes it easier to understand abstract arithmetic operations.
