Math Cubes - Fractions

Unpack the concept of parts and wholes with the Math Cubes Fractions set, a hands-on resource designed to build a strong foundation in fractional thinking. With tactile tools such as a geoboard, 18 sectors, 20 Multicubes, 20 rubber bands, and a collection of dual-sided activity cards, this set offers an engaging way to visualise fractions, compare sizes, and explore equivalence. The use of physical manipulatives provides clarity to abstract concepts such as numerator and denominator, making learning more accessible and enjoyable. Ideal for introducing concepts such as halves, quarters, and thirds, this set supports students in identifying and creating fractions in a concrete way. Whether used in whole-class lessons or targeted interventions, this kit helps demystify fractions and enhances confidence in this critical maths area.

Educational Benefits:

• Provides hands-on experience with fraction parts and equivalency.
• Encourages spatial reasoning and visual estimation.
• Reinforces vocabulary and conceptual understanding of fractions.
• Supports differentiation with varied activities and tactile tools.
