I love anything that helps make my students think critically and help them make connections that may not be obvious. This helps them to do that!
My students found many of the items too challenging. Resource is well thought out and designed.
A lot of work has gone into the resource and a lot of it is great but I found some of the questions too difficult and the relationships/analogies were unclear.
I bought these to use with the daily grammar resource. These assignments were very hard and took a lot of classtime. I liked that they were editable but editing them took me a long time too. I eventually stopped using them.
Love the Analogies lessons. Teaching how to solve was great. The only issue was the word choice of the worksheets. Many of the words were just too high-level. Students had to spend too much time looking up definitions to complete the analogies. It just takes too much time

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."
