Description:Imagine a device that could show your child how numbers actually work, by drawing pictures in real time of whatever maths your child was trying. It could demonstrate what the numbers and the symbols mean. It would diagram exactly how and why amounts change as we operate upon them. Perhaps you know of a few children who might benefit from such a device.Vizulator instantly models any quantity or maths operation. It will show tiny fractions and decimals or it will show thousands and millions. You can add, subtract, divide and multiply, and it will instantly show you your quantities and operations.The Vizulator Learning SystemAn on board curriculum guide maps out in detail how best to integrate this tool into your students maths learning. It explains how to utilise it for all areas of arithmetic and many other areas of the primary maths curriculum. You will find that for many months of the year Vizulator will be a daily tool.Just some of the areas of math it easily handles: Additions, subtraction, division, multiplication, numberbonds, place value, sequencing and ordering, multiples, factors, money, fractions, decimals, and percentages.Vizulator works as a kind of cross between a map and torch for exploring the world of numbers, but it does not dictate the journey. That is for you and your students to decide. It can be used in all the different teaching and learning modes that go on in the best classrooms and homes. Teachers can send their screen to their whiteboard for whole class sessions, groups can explore, and collaborate round their devices, individuals can get the support of this tool when working on their own. It can be a companion as students answer questions, investigate, explore, extrapolate, imagine, explain and create. Teachers can use it to set questions, to provide answers, to begin journeys and to clarify issues. It will demonstrate, explicate, model, challenge, propose, inspire, illucidate, illuminate, mesmerise, hypnotise. Perhaps above all it will show your students something of the beauty of numbers.But whatever it does, it will do it meaningfully.
