Wooden Montessori Counting Resources Preschool

Count on this classic wooden "computer" for years of play and learning! The solid hardwood base and frame holds 10 thick coated rods with 10 colorful wooden beads on each – 100 beads in all. Slide the beads for a visual and hands-on way to learn numbers and math concepts and to explore patterns and colors. Fun activity ideas available. There are several ways for kids and grown-ups to enjoy this wooden abacus. Move any number of beads to one side of the frame and have kids match your move on the wire below yours. Move a certain number of beads to one side and have kids count how many beads you moved and how many remain on the other side. Have kids count from one to 100 as they move the beads on all 10 rods. Made from sturdy durable wood, this Telraam computer abacus is a great addition to your preschool resources - for counting forward & backwards, simple additions and subtractions. It also helps when teaching kids to count in multiples.
