Description of the Material:

Composition: 9 metal bases, each containing cut-out sectors representing fractions ranging from 1/1 (one whole square) to 1/10 (ten sectors).

The child can remove the sectors from the bases, handle them, compare them and assemble them to form whole squares. In this way, he visually and tactilely discovers the relationships between the different fractions and their equivalences.

Educational Benefits:

Understanding Fractions: Concrete visualization of fractions and how they are represented.
Exploring Equivalences: Discovering the different ways to represent the same quantity (for example, 1/2 = 2/4 = 5/10).
Concept of Similarity: Understanding how different shapes can have similar properties.
Developing Logical Thinking: Identifying patterns, solving problems and comparing quantities.
Improving Fine Motor Coordination: Precise handling of the sectors.
Strengthening Concentration: An engaging activity that requires attention and delicate handling.
