It's called Flexitable(TM) and it's a folding multiplication table! This terrific resource is from World Class Learning Materials - and it certainly is a world class idea. This will work wonders with tactile-kinesthetic learners.

Stay with us on this; it's tricky to describe. Imagine holding a flexible, vinyl square in your hands. This square is numbered across the top and down one side with the numerals from 1 to 10 in red. The grid is scored between each number. The rest of the grid is covered with the numerals in increments matching the numeral at the top and side. For instance, under the "3" and across from the horizontal "3," the increments within the scored blocks go up by Ys: 3, 6, 9, 12, etc. up to 30. If one folds this grid, the answers are in the right hand corner. It sounds confusing; it's anything but. You can use this grid for division, multiples of, square roots, factors of, discovering number patterns, etc. Just $2.59 for a single unit $24.99 with packs of 10, etc. All have a guide packaged with them. Remember s/h if you order from World Class Learning.

We think you're going to be delighted with this item. Also available at your local school supply store.
