So you printed out the Complete Decanomial Bead Bars, and now you're ready to dive in start using them! Here are a few lessons you can show your child with the bead bars:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Play the Snake Game<\/h2>\n

For this lesson, you will be making combinations of 10 with the colored bead bars and converting the colored snake into a golden one. Create a \"snake\" with the bead bars, making sure that each combination of beads equals 10. Tell your child, there's only one rule in this game: \"<\/span>Everytime you get to 10, you must exchange for a ten bar.<\/span><\/span>\"<\/span><\/strong>Make sure to keep the colored beads on the side of the mat after exchanging so you can verify your answer!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Practice Addition Facts<\/h2>\n

The decanomial beads are a great way to practice addition facts! I don't even have to explain this one, it's that easy. You can use a sheet of paper, write down random equations and let the child add!<\/p>\n

3. Do the Multiplication Layout<\/h2>\n

This lesson is super fun and one of my favorites! Chose a number to work with... For example, 4, like we did in the video. Take four one time and lay it horizontally. \"Four taken 1 time is... 4.\"You can use a toothpick or some tool to count the beads... or just plain old fingers too.Lay out the answer vertically. Continue doing the same thing until you reach 4 taken 10 times. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Practice Subtraction Facts<\/h2>\n

Practicing subtraction facts with the beads is pretty simple! Let's do the example in the image above.\"I have 9... if I take away 7, how many will I have left over?\"Place the 7 bar underneath the nine bar and cover that portion with your hand. \"I have two left over!\"Have fun doing lots of random combinations!<\/p>\n
