Logotron Visual Fractions

Providing new learning opportunities through a unique visual representation of fractional relationships

Ideal for use by the teacher or pupil on a classroom whiteboard, Logotron Visual Fractions comes with a rich palette of visual maths objects that can be dynamically connected together and their properties varied with just a point and a click.

Using a selection of simple tools, you can connect mathematical objects to show a wide variety of dynamic teaching points that just aren't possible in any other way. Logotron Visual Fractions comes with a large number of pre-prepared activities that can enhance and extend your teaching of fractions from year 2 - 6 and beyond.

Connecting objects and creating visual relationships on the screen gives a new opportunity for teachers and pupils to understand those hard-to-grasp fraction concepts.

Children will quickly see the behaviour of fractions, decimal fractions, percentages, ratio, picture fractions, group fractions and more, where they may have struggled to understand with traditional methods. Ratio work, in particular, is given a refreshing degree of clarity by Logotron Visual Fractions.

Logotron Visual Fractions activity screens can be combined together into saved script sequences, allowing you to prepare your own visual frameworks to be used as part of your teaching and retrieved from disk whenever you need to use them again.

The clever part comes when you apply the toolkit of objects to visually reinforce your own teaching, using it as a centre of mathematical discussion – Why does that happen? What do you expect to happen if..? How could we show that...? What would I need to do in order to show that...?

The scripting facility allows you to create and save 'explanation' or 'experiment' frameworks either as single activities or as linked sequences of screens, so that you can be well prepared and maintain the pace and focus of your fraction lessons.
