Rekenrek Counting Frame from Hope Education
Rekenrek Counting Frame from Hope Education
Product code: G1367272
Product Description
Introducing the Rekenrek Counting Frame from Hope Education, an indispensable tool designed to enrich childrens foundational mathematics skills and foster a profound understanding of numbers. Highly suited for learning environments of various stages, this resource serves as a vital component in any educators Mathematics repertoire.
Crafted with care, our Rekenrek Counting Frame features a robust wooden frame and dual rows of ten beads, each row comprising five white and five red beads. Resembling a compact abacus, it is ideal for practising one-to-one correspondence, enhancing subitising skills, and reinforcing childrens comprehension of numbers up to 20. This includes fundamental concepts such as number bonds, addition, and subtraction facts. Furthermore, the beads can be assigned greater values, enabling the execution of more advanced calculations, thus tailoring the learning experience to the distinct needs of each child. This versatile tool not only encourages independent exploration and learning but also empowers children to gain confidence in mathematics through interactive and hands-on activities.
Included in the box:
- 1 x Rekenrek (70mm x 70mm x 250mm)
- Designed by Adrian Treffers from the Freudenthal Institute, the Rekenrek is grounded in evidence-based research, ensuring reliability and effectiveness in early Maths education.
- This versatile tool is essential for supporting the CPA (Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract) approach, encouraging deeper understanding and mastery of Maths in Reception through Year 2 classrooms.
- Strengthens foundational number sense and mathematical fluency while also enabling complex reasoning and problem-solving activities tailored to student needs.
- Durable construction with a wooden frame and two rows of colour-coded beads allows educators to introduce mathematics concepts ranging from basic number recognition to advanced calculation strategies.
- In the EYFS, it aids children in achieving the Number and Numerical Patterns Early Learning Goals, fostering a deep understanding of numbers up to 10, subitising to 5, and recognising number patterns.
- At Key Stage 1, it helps students identify one more and one less than a given number, understand number bonds up to 20, and perform basic addition and subtraction with ease.
- For Key Stage 2, when beads represent larger values, students can explore and practise counting in multiples and tackle higher-level problems to enhance mathematical reasoning and fluency.
- Start with simple counting exercises for younger students and gradually introduce more complex problems as their confidence grows.
- Use the Rekenrek in group activities to foster collaboration and communication among students, enhancing social learning experiences.
- Integrate pictorial representations of bead patterns into lesson plans to reinforce abstract mathematical concepts through visual learning.
- Incorporate the Rekenrek into daily Maths warm-ups to develop fluency and quick mental arithmetic skills over time.
