Details
An engaging, interactive tool for teaching place value on the classroom board.
Start with units and tens, then introduce hundreds as your students progress. This gradual approach helps children visually and physically explore the structure of numbers, building a clear and lasting understanding of place value.
The vertical format makes number representation easy to follow during whole-class instruction, while the magnetic elements allow for quick changes and active student participation.
The set includes:
-
Two magnetic boards: one for units & tens, one for hundreds
-
10 magnetic counting beads in each color, which can be placed on the rods to build and decompose numbers
This magnetic place value abacus is suitable for classroom teaching, small group work, and guided practice, supporting early numeracy skills such as number composition, comparison, and base-10 understanding.
You can also complement the abacus with magnetic number cards showing digits and place value letters (С, D, U), as well as magnetic math operation symbols (+, −, ×, ÷, =), to practice arithmetic problems directly on the classroom board.
The magnetic cards are flexible, washable, and designed for long-term classroom use, making them a durable resource that can be used year after year.
