Product Information
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.
