A user manipulates the at least one instruction piece to perform a change of state operation relating to the instruction. The apparatus and methods are based on applied cognitive science, where children play the lead role in storylines staged upon a rule-enforcing apparatus and by so doing, become self-enlightened about denumerability, rank-wise denumerability, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and other change-of-state processes encountered in mathematics and the quantifiable sciences.
