The Number Balance Activity Set is an excellent hands-on equivalence tool to show children number relationships and number operations. Self-checking math balance makes learning number concepts easier because kids can see the results. Place weights on a number or combination of numbers on one side and find an equivalent number or combination of numbers on the other by balancing the weight. Display a variety of concepts such as greater than, less than, equal to, and basic operation skills. Number Balance may be used to teach addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, as well as gain insight to abstract number and operations concepts, algebraic equations and more. The number balance relies on the principle of equivalence. Weights are placed on either side of the fulcrum or pivot point. If a weight is placed on the peg marked 8 on the right arm of the balance then it may be 'balanced' by placing a weight on 6 and another on 2 on the left arm of the balance. The equation 8 = 6 + 2 is formed. Six may be balanced with 5 and 1, and by placing two weights on 3. This balance idea may be extended into early algebra! Set includes 10 double-sided colorful activity cards. As kids become familiar with basic number concepts, the number balance may be used to learn about addition and particularly about the commutative property of addition, that is 6 = 4 + 2 and 2 + 4 = 6. Links to equations such as 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 4 + 2 may be made. The ideas of greater than and less than may be explained using a number balance. Subtraction, multiplication and division may all be explained using a number balance. Later early algebra concepts may be introduced. Balance measures 14 long and 5 high. Includes 1 plastic number balance, 20 hanging weights, and 20 double-sided activity cards.

These inviting number stackers will be a valuable resource to teach early number concepts, by helping children to make connections within and between numbers to ten. The bases measure 2 and show four different representations for each number: numeral, standard 1-5 dice array, random dot array and 10-frame pattern. Ideal to support early number sense and counting, children will be able to clearly see the quantity or 'howmanyness' of each number, subitise through different patterns, 1:1 counting, 1 more/1 less and difference. Made from responsibly sourced beech wood, each set includes ten number posts (2.5-7) and 55 rings. Age 18 months and up.

Pick up sticks and start counting! This beautifully simple wooden log has equal-sized holes which will encourage children to count out the correct number of sticks from a pile, and then count in the correct number for each section. When placed correctly in the sections, children can easily see the difference between the numbers (cardinality). Each side of the log shows a slightly different range of numerals – 1-10 on one side and 0-9 on the other, making it helpful to teach ordinality and the value of zero. Made from FSC beech wood the Counting Log is a delight to touch and play with. Contains: Counting Log measuring 18-1/2 long and 60 sticks (2-1/2). Safe for children aged 18+ months.
