The Abacus

Our friend, Joyce, brought in her husband's old abacus. 

His parents gave it to him when he was 5 years old. 

We got to count with it, touch it, 

look at it and write a description of it. 

This is an abacus. This abacus looks like a box. It is old and is brown and blue and made of wood.
