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 this resource for my ELL students. This has been a huge help! Thank you!!
Great for ADV
Used this with my ADV kiddos to push them to think further into the plot of the novel.
Greek & Latin Roots Sketch Notes
his resource was exactly what I needed! It was easy to use, well-organized, and appropriate for my 7th-grade students. The directions were clear, and the activities kept students engaged while providing meaningful practice.
I especially appreciated how easy it was to incorporate into my existing lessons with little to no prep. My students were able to understand what they were expected to do, and the resource worked well for a variety of learning needs.
Highly recommend for any 7th-grade classroom! I will definitely be using this resource again!

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."
