Great Resource!
This was perfect for students who need enrichment that hit area and perimeter standard.
Thinking and fun Challenge!
I have bought several of these tile games. My students love them and will even ask to play them during recess. I did buy small jars and got the tiles she used as a guide, I numbered and colored coded them, so I have 30 sets.
Love this resource!
Love math tile centers because they are basically self checking!
Excellent for Centers and Differentiation

Love the thinking that happens with these.
These are great challenges for high learners and really get the kids thinking.

Hi. Are all the shapes rectangles in the area and perimeter? Just asking because I teach third grade and we only teach area of rectangles. Thanks.
Hello! Yes, it's is just rectangles:-).
I purchased the math tile mega bundle awhile back, and my students LOVE them... A student pointed out that on Area & Perimeter, #4 - the middle row area should have a 3 in the ones place, not a 2. I checked the answer sheet and the length is 9, width is 7, which equals 63, not 62. Thanks!!
Uploading a corrected version right now! Should be ready in 10 minutes. Thanks for letting me know!!
