Why use Math Tiles?

- 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

How to use it
Use the cards after an equivalent fractions lesson and ask students to explain how they know that each pair names the same amount. 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.

Can't wait to use these with my class! Thanks for another fab resource!
Another great resource
These are great and easy to implement. I am hoping next year to have these as my do now. Kids find them engaging and I'm thrilled they are actually thinking about math.
Thank you!
I introduced these one time, let the students work with a partner, and they took off. It's a favorite indoor recess activity and a fun way to get math thinking going. Thanks for such a wonderful product! I highly suggest it to anyone looking for rigorous anchor activities.
