Did you like the Cotter Sum Line? We have one for you to print out and let your child use while they are learning addition and subtraction.
If you are looking for more information on the Cotter Abacus for your child, we have information about it here. If you would like to incorporate the abacus into your child’s math program, it can be found here.
Here is a copy of the place value cards, the base-10 cards, and the fraction chart for you to print out, cut up, and use with your child. If you would like a more sturdy version, we have plastic place value cards, more durable base-10 cards, and a plastic fraction chart for you.
If you are looking for lessons using this approach, there is the RightStart Tutoring Number Sense Kit, which includes lessons and games teaching about numbers, simple addition and subtraction, and four-digit addition and subtraction.
