When should you start presenting these lessons?

You may present the following lessons to your child once you've:

• Introduced the decimal system
• Worked with the teens and tens 
• Completed the teens and tens lessons and started the ten chain lesson in the Linear Counting module. 

These lessons give the child a multi sensory experience priming them for a faster way of counting: skip counting! It also introducing the idea of squaring and cubing numbers in a concrete way. Hey, you might even have an aha! moment or two while you work through the following lessons with your child! Perhaps the squares and cubes of numbers will actually come to life with these gorgeous bead materials!

This module looks short, but there is a lot of work involved with the chains because there are ten of them! Also note that this is a sensorial introduction to squares and cubes of numbers. You will dive in way deeper in elementary.
