Counting Bars in Rainbow Colours, 100 pcs.

This 100-piece set offers a clear and understandable illustration of numerical values and initial arithmetic processes. Children gain not just a theoretical understanding of the principles of mathematics, they can also apply these immediately in practice using the counting bars.

Children will quickly be able to determine the numerical values of the individual bars and understand that bars with the same numerical value are the same length and the same colour.
Comparisons can be used to understand early arithmetic tasks: two number 2 bars are exactly the same length as a number 4 bar; a 3 bar and a 2 bar are the same length as a 5 bar etc.

Children from the age of 4 can be taught proportions and spatial concepts using the graduated number bars. Bold colours encourage children to play with these mathematical building blocks, which are coordinated and range from 1 cm to 10 cm in height. This makes the numerical ratio between the bars very obvious.

• understand the laws of mathematics
• relate proportions to each other
• promotes spatial thinking
