Labeling bead chains at specified intervals with number labels, squares, and a cube in Skip Counting exercises gives children a concrete impression of multiples, square numbers, and cubed numbers in preparation for elementary studies. Included in the "For Parents" section of this publication is an overview of color-coding and number labels used in the Casa.
