Description
Use multiplication and division to solve factor puzzles. Students arrange the digits 0–9 to complete two 2-by-2 grids built around the factors of four numbers.
Why use Math Tiles?
- Make problem solving hands-on by letting students move number tiles and test their ideas.
- Build flexible thinking as students follow different clues and try more than one strategy.
- Practice perseverance and build confidence by revising a choice when the first idea doesn’t fit.
- Give students meaningful independent practice or have partners explain and compare their thinking.
- Save paper by reusing printed cards and having students record their answers on a separate sheet.
What’s included
- 30 printable puzzle cards
- Google Slides version with movable number tiles
- Student recording sheet
- Answer keys
- Teacher setup tips
- Printable 0–9 number tiles
How to use it
Have partners explain how a factor they placed helped them work out another blank in the grid. For print, cut out the included number tiles or use a set you already have. In Google Slides, students move the tiles in edit mode.

I love these doodle pages so much! I have used them before in previous grades and I'm so glad there was a 6th grade one to add to my note taking part of class.

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."
