The number balance activity set is an excellent hands-on Equivalence tool to show children number relationships and number operations. 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. Set includes 10 double-sided colorful activity cards. Balance measures 14 inch long and 5 inch high. 20 equivalent weights included.
Features
Self-checking math balance makes learning number concepts easier because kids can see the resultsDisplay a variety of concepts such as greater than, less than, equal to, and basic operation skillsThe number balance relies on the principle of equivalence. Weights are placed on either side of the fulcrum or pivot point. If the arms balance the equation is equalLearn 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 madeNumber 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
