Help students visualize number relationships! The Rekenrek is a math tool that supports subitizing, counting, and computational strategies. The beads are color-coded by 5s and help students to identify numbers without counting. Students learn how to make and break values to 5 and 10. This demonstration version attaches magnetically to surfaces and collapse to conserve storage space in your classroom. It is designed to teach subitizing, different addition & subtraction strategies, and how to compose and decompose numbers. This 120 Bead Magnetic Rekenrek Line extends to 4 feet wide! It helps teach how to add and subtract within 120 using strategies based on place value. Our two-color Rekenreks are a tried-and-true way to deepen understanding of numbers, counting, addition, and subtraction. Using an abacus to help teach math makes counting easier to learn without the mess or risk of losing stray counters. Ideal for groups or whole classroom instruction.
