The FLEXITABLE programme consists of a multiplication, an addition a number and a fraction grid all printed on soft flexible plastic that has vertical and horizontal channels allowing children to continuously fold them again and again. Flexitables have a far greater life than paper or cardboard products.

FLEXITABLES are tactile and children love manipulating them when trying to discover the answers. They are particularly useful for teaching pupils with special needs e.g. Dyslexia as they can be taught on a “one-to-one basis” at their own speed.

Multiplication & Division

The red numbers that run across the top of the grid and down the far left hand side act as the multipliers and multiplicands in multiplication. In division they act as the divisors and quotients.

To multiply 6 by 4
a) Look along the top row and find the 6.
b) Fold the table from the top to bottom, vertically, back under the numbers 1 - 6.
c) Keep the table folded and look down the left hand column for the number 4.
d) Fold the table up, horizontally, under this row.
e) In the right-hand corner, find the answer, 24!

Fractions & Decimals

The Fraction Grid shows the relationship between fractions and percentages on the front face with the equivalent decimal values on the reverse. By folding the grid down the vertical channels children can discover that one quarter is the same as 25% and 0.25 etc and by folding the grids again and again they can find the equivalent fractions, percentages and decimals that make up 1.

Numbers 1-100

We have added the 100 Number Square to our range in response to the many requests for it that we have received from teachers. Based on the Flexitable format the 100 Square Grid is printed with the same lead free inks on PVC to give you a pliable table that is easy for students to manipulate. The columns of odd figures are printed in green whilst the even numbers are printed in blue to help children gain familiarity with the numbers 1-100 and to discover basic number patterns.
