Rekenrek 20 Bead Bar

This isn't just a bead bar. It's a recycled, sturdy, brilliantly simple maths sidekick. Whether you're tackling number bonds, cracking the counting on, or just making "greater than" sound greater than ever, this rekenrek does the job-minus the plastic guilt. Each bar features twenty beads (10 red, 10 white) arranged in groups of five, perfect for building early number sense and highlighting that all-important 5s and 10s structure. It's sloped for stability, sits neatly on tables or trays, and is made from RE-Wood-a clever material produced entirely from waste wood fibres. Stainless steel rods and fastenings add durability. The eco-credentials? Top notch. The learning potential? Even better. From EYFS through to Key Stage One, this bead bar supports counting, comparison, adding and subtracting, doubling and halving-basically, it does everything except make the tea.
