Material Detail

Abaku is a mathematics teaching method for developing arithmetic thinking through number relationships. Learners work with digits and build valid arithmetic relationships without writing mathematical symbols.

The method can be used with number tiles, cards, dice, classroom activities, the Abaku board game and browser-based learning environments. It supports number sense, mental arithmetic, flexible calculation strategies, problem solving and mathematical discussion.

This resource introduces the educational principle behind Abaku and shows how it can be used in primary and lower secondary mathematics education.
