Brand and product details
This 51-piece set makes fractions something you can hold. Each cube is proportionally sized to the value it represents, running from a whole down through to twelfths, with nine distinct colours separating the values. That proportionality is the entire teaching mechanism: a child who sets several smaller pieces against a larger one and sees them match exactly has understood equivalence in a way no written exercise delivers as quickly. From there the same set carries into decimals and percentages, since the underlying relationships are identical and only the notation changes. The hands-on manipulation also supports spatial reasoning, counting, sorting and comparison, and handling the smaller pieces is fine motor work in its own right. It suits visual and kinesthetic learners particularly well, and gives anyone teaching fractions a concrete representation to fall back on when the abstract version stalls. Supplied in a polybag.
