MATH PRODUCTS:
THE COMPLETE FINGER BOOK OF MATH
Fingermath is a simple and useful method for teaching kids (and adults) to understand the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division by using their fingers for counting.
Instead of only being able to count to ten on your fingers, this system (derived from the abacus) uses the right thumb to represent five and the four fingers of the right hand as ones. The left thumb represents 50, and the four remaining fingers of the left hand represent tens. Thus, if all your fingers are pressed you have 50 + 40 = 90 on your left hand and 5 + 4 = 9 on your right hand, for a total of 99. (Methods for dealing with larger numbers are also presented in the book.)
