Purpose:
To Teach Addition Tables
Materials:
- A mat
- A box containing the following bead stair:
| -0- |
1 red bead |
| -00- |
2 green beads |
| -000- |
3 pink beads |
| -0000- |

Each bead bar is strung together with wire. Each number of beads is a set unit. There should be 2 bead stairs for addition exercises.
Teach the addition tables as follows:
| 1+1= |
9+1= |
| 1+2= |
9+2= |
| 1+3= |
9+3= |
| 1+4= |
9+4= |
| 1+5= |
9+5= |
| 1+6= |
9+6= |
| 1+7= |
9+7= |
| 1+8= |
9+8= |

Exercise:
The child makes a stair with beads (like in the number rods). The child chooses any table, such as the 3 table.
- The child finds 3+1=
- Places a 3 bar(3 pink beads strung together) and a 1 bar (1 red bead) on a mat
- Your child counts all of the beads and tells the results: 4 beads altogether
- He replaces the bar and takes out a 3 bar and a 2 bar (2 green beads strung together).
- Your child counts the beads and writes down the number 5.
- You can make a math book with graph paper and write out various addition problems.
- For beginners make sums less than five.
- You might need two bead stairs for same number additives, such as 2+2=, 1+1=, 3+3= etc.
