Multiplication Bead Bar Layout Box: Individual

The Multiplication Bead Bar Layout Box keeps the coloured bead bars sorted by value, ready for laying out the times tables bar by bar. A child who sets down six taken four times sees the product as a real rectangle of beads before ever meeting the written fact, and the colours keep each factor recognisable across the whole layout. The material carries the work from skip counting through to the squares, for children from three years.
