Cuissenaire Rods

[carpe vestri vita]

These are the coolest math manipulative I've ever seen. They're practically building blocks and yet impart all sorts of mathematical knowledge. I've been using them along with a few free math curricula. All four toddlers are adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. They think they're playing  It's only taken a few months. I recommend researching them as a teaching aid for kids too old for dots and too young for conventional programs.

We have some of these and Ithey are great.  I'd love to have some ideas for getting the most out of them. Which curriculum do you use?  Thanks!

We are using http://www.nurturedbylove.ca/resources/cuisenairebook.pdf once a week, and
http://ceure.buffalostate.edu/~csmp/CSMPProgram/Primary%20Disk/Start.html and http://www.cimt.plymouth.ac.uk/projects/mep/default.htm twice per week.

But honestly the best advancements come when one of them is just playing and comes up with something neat, and shows the others. For example 2 yellow rods are the same length as 5 red rods. This was very exciting for Andy. Very very exciting. He was talking about it for hours after he discovered it, and then Amy tells him that it's the same as an orange rod. Then she pondered how many yellow rods would be the same as 2 orange rods. Immediately Andy said 4. So I got out the rods for them to test it.
