A set of four wooden skittles on an inset wooden stand.
The concept of fractions can be difficult for children to grasp in the abstract, the fraction skittles give a concrete three dimensional experience of how 1 whole skittle can be divided into halves, thirds and quarters. They also demonstrate that 2 quarters are equivalent to 1 half. The fractions can also be weighed on a balance scale to give another concrete experience of the differences in their size.
The fraction skittles are colour coded to give the child a control of error.
