Hands-On Equations® Class Set for Teacher and 20 Students. Includes The Teacher Demonstration Balance Scale & Game Pieces and 20 Sets of Student manipulatives. Grade 3 and up.
Students employ “legal moves” to simplify and solve concrete and pictorial representations of algebra equations using a balance scale image, pawns, and numbered cubes.
These math manipulatives are intuitive and easy to use. This visual and hands-on approach enables gifted 2nd graders, average 3rd graders, students with learning disabilities in Grades 4 -12, and middle-school pre-algebra students to experience success in solving algebraic equations.
This hands-on learning enables students to conceptualize equivalence and the methods for solving equations. The game-like approach enhances student interest in mathematics and lays a foundation for later algebra. Teachers LOVE our math learning kit and instructional strategies!
Dr. Henry Borenson was awarded a patent for this instructional approach using game pieces, a laminated balance scale for the student, and a 3-dimensional stationary balance scale for the teacher. In three lessons students solve 4x + 3 = 3x + 9 and in six lessons they solve 2(2x + 1) = 3x + 12.
Since 1986, the Hands-On Equations algebra manipulatives have helped more than a million students learn how to solve equations. Students respond positively to this enjoyable learning activity and are encouraged to solve advanced-looking equations, enhancing their interest in math. You owe it to yourself and your students to bring this pleasurable learning experience into your classroom!
