Needs Instructions: my feedback

I am sure that this product works well but it is important to know how to work it. The package came with just the cards and no instructions. So, we've just been playing around with it to see if we can figure it out, but since the reason we purchased it was to get better at fractions. its not been so easy.

Pros
  • Great
Cons
  • The fraction models may not come with clear instructions or guidelines for effective use

I was concerned about them being flimsy from the pictures but was happily surprised that they aren’t and are easy for my .

Bought these a while back and they have been crucial in my 10 year old’s learning fractions. My son is a very hands on learner and was struggling grasping the concepts of equivalent fractions. I was concerned about them being flimsy from the pictures but was happily surprised that they aren’t and are easy for my son to use/grasp.

Pros
  • EAI Education
Cons
  • The product may not be accessible to children with visual impairments who cannot see the fraction models clearly

No instructions for using them

Absolutely no instructions whatsoever these are pretty much useless without the instructions. Can’t even find instructions online for them

Pros
  • Contains 52 printed cards in blue and 52 transparent overlays in yellow - 50 fractional cards and overlays plus one blank card and overlay, and one 10 x 10 grid card overlay.
Cons
  • The fraction model multipliers may not be durable enough to withstand frequent use in a classroom setting

Great for Math Centers

When teaching I use Fraction Models to demonstrate concepts. I plan to use these in math centers so that students will have the opportunity to use the manipulative fraction models. Allowing students to use these math manipulative will provide them with the opportunity to have meaningful discussions which will help make math comprehensible. Great product and durable!

Pros
  • Very well made cards that make it easy to teach fractions. Love this set!!
Cons
  • The fraction models may not accurately represent real-world situations in which multiplication is applied

These Make Multiplying Fractions Clear and Easy

This is a fantastic hands-on way to help your students understand the meaning of multiplying fractions. These make multiplying fractions abundantly clear and easy. The cards are high quality. I used these with a student, who I tutor, and he was really excited about them. Made it a really fun tutoring session. I highly recommend them. Now I am looking into all of the other products this company makes.

Pros
  • Great manipulative to facilitate understanding for my students. Great purchase.
Cons
  • The product may not be suitable for children who struggle with fractions or multiplication concepts

Excludes 7ths, 9ths and 11ths.

This is a great manipulative, but I really wish that the set included a set of 7ths, 9ths and 11ths.I know that would require that EAI include an additional 54pieces to this set, but it would make it complete and more robust for students and teachers alike.

Pros
  • This is a great visual manipulative for helping students understand fractions. Highly recommended.
Cons
  • The fraction model multipliers may take up too much space in a classroom or at home
