Rekenrek frames that show numbers in fives and tens
EDX Education Rekenrek Counting Frame Set of 4, EDX item code 40912, is a set of four rekenrek frames that EDX describes as a plastic abacus, with two rows of plastic beads on metal rods.
Each frame carries 20 beads in two rows of 10, and the Australian distributor lists every row as five red beads and five white beads. EDX notes that the beads slide easily back and forth on the metal rods. The distributor gives each frame as 7cm x 7cm x 20cm, and EDX builds the design around thinking in groups of 5 and 10.
The distributor lists the rekenrek as a tool for counting by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10, subitising, addition, subtraction and multiplication. EDX calls it a teaching tool for building basic maths skills in counting, addition and subtraction. With four frames in the set, several children can model numbers side by side.
EDX lists the frames for children aged 5 to 7, and the set of four suits small group work. Browse the full EDX Education range, more maths equipment, educational teacher supplies and the wider educational supplies catalogue.
