About us
We’re all about math and all about making math teaching and learning more concrete, more active, and more effective. We’re the source that thousands of educators trust for manipulatives and supplemental curriculum resources that make math easier to teach and way more fun to learn! Many of our flagship products, like Unifix® Cubes and Didax Math kits, have helped learners master essential number and computational concepts. And as our product lineup grows, we’re adding ingenious hands-on and digital manipulatives to help students master basic through advanced math operations, facts, and critical thinking skills. Our solutions are educator-developed, classroom-tested, and always trusted for efficacy, durability, and authentic learning value. For more than 45 years, we’ve created products and resources that build math success and confidence. Our name, Didax, came from the Greek word didaktikos, meaning ability to teach. And that’s exactly what we do…we create the products that give teachers the ability to teach math successfully to every learner.

Didax has many materials that can be leveraged for concrete and visual graphs!

In the third step of my data protocol, students are asked "Now What?". The answer may include a decision, action, more questions, or collecting their own related data. They can represent their data with hands-on materials such as a magnetic whiteboard grid and magnetic manipulatives. Then they can do a new, highly relevant Data Discussion. Not to mention, compare and contrast the effectiveness of the visualizations! Graph credit to the amazing Jenna Laib [more slow reveal graphs at slowrevealgraphs.com]. These really enhance reasoning and discourse during the notice/wonder part!

We’re excited to be counting down the days until NCSM and NCTM! 😎 If you’re attending the show, stop by Booth #305 at NCSM and Booth #823 at NCTM. We’re also thrilled to announce that our very own team member, Christine Hopkinson, will be leading a session at NCTM on PK-2 Data Discussions: Engaging Students in Numeracy, Discourse, and Mathematical Practices. Data Discussions empower young learners to use mathematics to understand the world around them. Through real-world data and engaging discourse, students develop essential number concepts, mathematical practices, and a sense of belonging in the math community. Join Christine on Thursday, September 26, 2024, from 11:30 AM - 12:00 PM in Room S401 D for this exciting session! 🤩 We’re so excited to show off our newest products, collaborate with educators, and showcase all of our Active Math Active Learning products.
