Description
Time to Tile: 2 by 2 Factor Puzzles is a hands-on activity that takes students’ thinking beyond procedures and rote memorization. This engaging resource activates critical thinking and problem-solving skills, all while building a true understanding of factors and the relationship between multiplication and division. Students must place 10 number tiles (0-9) on the Time to Tile cards in order to correctly complete two 2-by-2 matrixes/matrices that are based on the factors of 4 different numbers.
This resource is now provided in printable and digital formats (Google Slides).
This resource includes:
•30 different Time to Tile cards
•An “Answer Recording Sheet,” where students can record their answers so they can be corrected later. This allows the resource to be used as a perfect independent or center activity.
•Answer keys
•Management and organization tips for successfully implementing Time to Tile in your classroom.

I am a visual person. Would love to have a few pictures as to how to assemble.
Hmmm, this resource has potential, but is confusing as is. What in the world do all of the dfferent icons represent? Also, a sample answer key is missing. Yes, there are multiple answers to the questions, but I have seen other resources offer them anyways. The worksheets also lack definitions or an area to write definitions for key terms used such as irony and paradox. I like the questions, but will have to spend a lot of time making it fit my needs. Seriously, one of the first things that kids are going to ask are what the icons represent. I can't figure it out nor could my husband who is a lawyer!
I am so sorry you are disappointed. This resource is based on The Depth and Complexity Framework. You can find more information about these icons online.

The pages and activities are a bit repetitive. Consistency is great, but I had to change things up otherwise my kids were getting too bored.
Not to thrilled about the quality of copies. Looks like they are scanned copies.
Hi Nicole. Are you using the latest version of Adobe Reader to open this file? They should NOT look like scanned copies; I made these in Adobe Illustrator and when I open and print them they are very crisp. Please contact customer support if you are continuing to have problems with the file.
Thank you for sharing

Is there a Math Tiles bundle or does each need to be purchased individually? Thank you
I do have a build-your-own bundle option:
There seems to be something very wrong with this PDF file. It crashes my preview application every single time, but other files don't crash it. It's also VERY glitchy when I open the pdf using an online browser.
Also, there are a few pages with answers filled in.
Hi Robyn. I made some changes to the graphics in the file, so it would load more smoothly. I recommend opening and printing all of my files from Adobe Reader for best results. I also deleted some of those answers that mistakenly were left on some of the cards. Please let me know if the changes I made help. You can download the new version under "my purchases."
