I normally teach high ability math and my students love the challenge of these tiles! This year, I don't have high ability for math and it was more of a struggle. I wish I had purchased a lower level for my group this year. The high ability and problem solvers do enjoy them!
Great resource for my students. They were engaged and happy to learn.
While my students don't love taking these quizzes, they are excellent to review what they learned throughout the week.
I used this resource on Fridays after completing the Language Reviews. While my students enjoyed doing the reviews as a class, they did not enjoy the assessments and felt they were too hard, even when i let them use their language review sheets. While this is a good tool for a fast read on how my students are doing, it isn't worth the looks of anguish each Friday.
My students were engaged with activity. Whenever I can incorporate art and writing, it seems to work

Several years ago you offered a bundle of tile activities, where I could choose I believe 10 different activities. I recall that I had to download them through your website and, at that time, your activities were paper only. Now you offer the same activity as both paper and digital, but since I bought and downloaded mine through your website, I do not have access to the digital versions. Is there any way to get the digital version of the tile activities I already purchased from you?
Hello, Jeannine! If you can email me your order number or the original email I sent you with your links, I can help you with this. info@teacherthrive.com
I purchased this product and another one of yours. The other product printed no problem, but this one is not sending to printer at all. Has this happened to anyone else? Do you have any suggestions? As of right now I am unable to print any of it at all.

Is there any way to be refunded? The product is beautifully done, but when I looked at the preview, it appeared this product was at a 4th grade level and it is way too difficult for my students. I would happily exchange it for a different product on your page. Thanks.
Hi Alison. Unfortunately, digital downloads on TpT are nonrefundable. I will say that I have used this exact resource with 4th grade. I encourage you to give it a try with your students. I think you will be pleasantly surprised :-).
