Number Rack facilitates the natural development of children’s number sense. The movable, colored beads encourage learners to think in groups of fives and tens, helping them to explore and discover a variety of addition and subtraction strategies.
This virtual version of the manipulative is an open-ended educational tool, ideal for elementary classrooms and other learning environments that use iPod Touches, iPhones, or iPads.

FEATURES

• Display 1 to 5 rows of beads, 10 beads per row. On the iPad, display up to 10 rows.

• Hide beads with the resizable shade, which allows teachers or learners to model subtraction or difference problems.

iPad only:

• Reverse the colors of rows 6 to 10 to distinguish (or not) groupings of 25 beads.

• Use the drawing tools to annotate work and show understanding

• Write equations and expressions with the text tool.
