Manipulative materials have become an increasingly important part of mathematics instruction. The point has been argued that manipulatives make mathematics more intriguing, easier to understand, and even more fun to learn. The challenge for the mathematics teacher is to find new and interesting materials that help students better understand mathematics and better remember the mathematics that they have learned. Lima beans and small paper cups are one effective alternative for helping junior high school students learn how to solve simple algebraic equation.
