EAI Education Algebra Tiles: Standard Set - 35 Pieces

These are excellent manipulatives for those learning algebra!

It works perfectly.

Material bastante resistente, muy buen producto. Quizá puedan vender un set más grande de, con más fichas.

This set has 35 sturdy, double sided (one for positive, one for negative) pieces. Pieces are a bit smaller than I expected, but still plenty large enough to be useful and not so large they take up excess space. They are excellent for introducing substitution, solving simple equations, multiplying many binomials, and factoring some trinomials. There are 5 large squares, 10 rectangles, and 20 small units squares. This means if you are multiplying to get any more than 4 x^2 or 10x, you won't have enough tiles. This is not a problem when introducing the concept, but could possibly be limiting as you move forward. Overall, an excellent value for this set. I'll ponder if I need an extra set to make it applicable to a wider range of problems.

Algebra Tiles provide a good visual for students who are learning about and working with algebraic expressions. They provide a good way to link their understanding of area and their previous work with number blocks to the new concept. The tiles were very helpful to my students.

Too overpriced for limited quantities

I used these in my education course, and they're a great material for visually representing algebra, utilizing the red side indicated a negative value which increases the uses this product can provide. Very satisfied :)

These tiles were recommended to my daughter to help her with math. She really likes them!
