PUT IT TOGETHER TO BUILD MATH SKILLS - This puzzle set serves as a fun introduction to addition. Fifteen different equations are presented: on one side, shown by groups of high-interest objects; on the other side, shown with numerals. Numbers represented range between 1 and 10. Supports learning standards from early-childhood professional organizations as well as national and state guidelines.
RESEARCH BASED, CLASSROOM PROVEN - Repetition of the matching activity is key to building brain connections, so we use fun, detailed, attention-getting illustrations to illustrate item grouping. Basic printing is large and easy to read. And only matching pieces fit together so the learner knows when a match is made. These elements build enjoyment, and that leads to playing again and again.
LEARNING CAN BE A GAME - As learners' skills grow, add tweaks to game play for more challenge - for instance, setting out a problem but leaving out one piece for the student to decide what is needed. Or, ask the learner what the sum would be if a different number were being added! Designed for ages 5 and up.
VALUE, QUALITY, AND SAFETY - 45 big (3" x 3") and sturdy boardstock cards are packed in a reinforced cardboard storage box, for many years of use. These puzzles exceed all children's product safety standards and are tested routinely.
