Flexitables are no ordinary multiplication tables or numeracy charts as they are tactile and made of soft flexible plastic. This low tech approach to maths teaching resources is an effective way of boosting numeracy.

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.
