Learning to understand fractions is easiest using the example of a circle. The different sized circle segments are labeled on one side with the appropriate fraction, the decimal fraction and the appropriate percentage. The other side is blank to allow estimates. The most diverse ways of specifying fractions are compared with one another. The child automatically learns to convert fractions into decimal numbers and also to express them in percent.

Use, advantages, areas of application for this Montessori material:

• • Learn to understand percentages and fractions by comparing areas

• • Practice converting decimal fractions into percent and converting fractions

• • Fractional circles made of wood, printed with decimal fractions, fractions and percentages

• • Develop an understanding of fractions

• • Made in Germany

• • Montessori material for children from 5 years
