## What is Mathematical blocks?

The application includes several dozen sets of teaching aids designed to support the teaching of mathematics in its most important stages - from kindergarten to primary school graduation.

Starting from version 2.00 - I have added exercises for self-study on the increasing difficulty scale to selected sets. The exercise sets are marked with a yellow sticky note in the upper left corner. Currently this includes 22 kits, further updates will expand their scope.

A UNIFORM WAY TO USE EVERY SET:

Each set is arranged on the screen on a "checkered sheet".
You can move in any direction with the Left Joystick. You can also zoom in or out with the Right Joystick.
You can write on each sheet of paper with your finger after activating the pencil and erase existing drawings with a broom. 
Each page can be reset at any time.
Each element from the set can be "dragged" onto the screen any number of times - you are limited only by the size of the "checkered sheet " and your imagination.
Each element can be:
- rotated,
- dragged to another place,
- checked or unchecked,
- deleted.
The colours can be changed many times in the "Mosaics" collection.
The rods from the "All Together" set can be changed in the number presentation mode - fractions/decimals/percentages.
The rods from the "Decimals" set can be put on top of each other to obtain the effect of "eating a positive number by a negative number". The rods representing negative numbers are slightly transparent - so that you can see through them how much of the positive number has been "eaten".

If you think that something is missing or should have some additional functionality - let me know by e-mail.

I wish you effective/enjoyable learning/fun.
