Rekenrek101

Have you been surprised with how many mathematical concepts the rekenrek has supported children with across your school? You’re not the only one!

We’d love to hear what you use them for in your school.

A little throw back to a filming day with and listening to how the rekenrek has improved the confidence of children at Hawthorn Primary School.

It’s so satisfying to see efficient use of the rekenrek and hearing those beads!

Check out this learner and her confidence when using a rekenrek to support her with addition.

You can see the thinking time she needs and hear the confidence in her voice after it too!

Six minutes probably doesn’t sound like a lot.

But when those six minutes are purposeful, consistent and built around understanding, they soon add up.

Our Rekenrek 101 Times Tables programme is designed to fit into the school day, helping children develop secure multiplication facts through short, daily practice that lasts just six minutes.

Small routines. Consistent practice. Lasting impact.

How do you make time for times tables practice in your classroom?
