I have had the opportunity to read and review the Introduction to Foundational Numeracy, The Linear Abacus Games Book, and the Additive Thinking Flash Cards.

My first reaction is that the resources are structured to support students making sense of mathematics by emphasising the connection between the principles of arithmetic and the representation offered through the linear abacus bead strings.

My second reaction is that the resources, taken together, are a extraordinarily well compiled comprehensive set of resources that emphasise not only the mathematics but also the pedagogy of engaging students in thinking about the mathematics.
I would encourage teachers and principals to take advantage of any professional learning opportunities offered that illustrate the potential of the particular resource.
