Hands-On Equations
Hands-On Equations is an interactive introduction to pre-algebra and provides students with a concrete foundation for algebra in the future years. It uses the visual and kinesthetic instructional approach developed by Dr. Henry Borenson to demystify abstract algebraic concepts. This hands-on, intuitive approach enhances student self-esteem and interest in mathematics.
This week Upper Elementary students continue to master new levels using Hands-On Equations materials.
