    "The linear abacus has been a valuable tool in our classroom for teaching students about number and algebra concepts. Its color-coded design and arrangement in tens on a string make it easy for students to solve problems and keep the classroom tidy. As a teacher, I find it convenient to model concepts on the whiteboard using my own linear abacus. Our students have successfully used it to learn about place value, fractions, decimals, addition, and subtraction."
