Bean Sticks are used to model the decimal place value system. Math manipulatives such as Bean Sticks allow students to experience and develop math concepts through interaction and discovery. Concept development is the foundation of mathematical understanding. Hands-On Math: Bean Sticks simulates the use of a popular math manipulative used to teach place value and addition and subtraction with regrouping. Bean Sticks are one of the best ways to help students place value. Using this app students place Bean Sticks on an interactive Playground to represent numbers. Bean Sticks can be regrouped or exchanged by dragging a virtual manipulative from one column to the next. Using Hands-On Math: Bean Sticks students can develop the following important mathematical concepts: * Place value concepts * Regrouping in the ones, tens and hundreds places * Basic operations: addition and subtraction * Naming numbers * Expanded notation * Reading and writing numbers If you are interested in teaching place value you may also be interested in our app titled Hands-On Math: Base Ten Blocks.

The Practice Mode is not scored. At the end of the practice mode, the child can try again with a new set of problems. 2) Test Mode: The Test Mode is scored and does not prompt the child during their attempt to solve the problem. At the end of the Test Mode, the child can try again with a set of new math problems or review their answers with detailed feedback and explanation. This app supports maths learning in homes by helping kids in grade 3 with their mathematical understanding and mastering math skills without any harmful distractions or ads.
