Description

Turn multi-digit addition into a puzzle about place value. Students place digits 0–9 in the missing spaces to complete two addition problems with three- and four-digit numbers written in columns.

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 long addition puzzle cards
  • Google Slides version with movable number tiles
  • Student recording sheet
  • Answer keys
  • Teacher setup tips

How to use it

Use a card after a regrouping lesson and ask students to explain how a sum in one column affects the next column. For print, provide one set of 0–9 number tiles per student or pair. In Google Slides, students move the tiles in edit mode.

The Bridge Learning Center

This is a terrific morning math resource for the kiddos to settle in to their seats while revisiting concepts taught this year. I would like to see a little more variety in the type of questions asked.
