Description
Time to Tile: Mixed Numbers and Improper Fractions is a hands-on activity that takes students’ thinking beyond procedures and rote memorization. This engaging resource activates critical thinking and problem-solving skills, all while building a concrete understanding of fractions. Students must place 10 number tiles (0-9) on the Time to Tile cards in order to correctly complete the equivalent fractions.
This resource is now provided in printable and digital formats (Google Slides).
This resource includes:
•30 different Time to Tile cards
•An “Answer Recording Sheet,” where students can record their answers so they can be corrected later. This allows the resource to be used as a perfect independent or center activity.
•Answer keys
•Management and organization tips for successfully implementing Time to Tile in your classroom.

Materials are good, but they focus in just a few strategies of critical thinking, used repeteadly. I miss some more depth and breath on thinking teaching
Very nice product.
I took a chance on this.....I was hoping for something that the student could use independently. But it's created for the classroom where the teacher would speak as s(he) "flips" through the slides.
I'll still use it in my own direct instruction.
I like this, I would love it if I could move things around to match when my kids learn concepts. I don't want kids to have an activity that I would use as a morning work, individual, on-their-own, to frustrate them because this has fractions before they've learned them, or whatever. I had kids who became very frustrated by the fact that they hadn't learned something at the beginning of the year, but it was introduced in this packet. It also meant I had to either do a mini-lesson for them, weeks before something was introduced, or just show them how something was solved when we went over the answers, rather than letting them figure it out, because it was a morning activity. I don't like that about this product. I understand about copyright, however, there are other sellers and products that do allow editing, which I've since purchased so that I CAN tailor to my classes. This was somewhat of a waste of money.
Hello. I hope you will find a use for this in your classroom at some time in the year. I understand your desire to prevent your students from becoming frustrated. I have always found it beneficial to present unfamiliar concepts to my students, as this is representative of "real life". I can assure you that if you do use the first few weeks of the resource as a a guided instruction opportunity (see teaching notes), your kids will catch on in not time and be off and running. Also, please note that an entire 2 weeks is provided in the preview. Best of luck with your school year!
Good resource.
The roles are really clear and the students responded well. I am using these also for information texts.

Do you have a bundle for all of your tiles?
We no longer offer this bundle on TpT because it became too difficult to manage, and teachers didn't get instant access to their purchases. We were able to automate the build-your-own-bundle process in our off-site store, which makes the process a lot easier for teachers and us.

Will this be updated to include black and white pages like the other sets of math tiles?
Hi MaryAlison! The graphics I used for this set did not have a black and white version. I will be redoing this set with different graphics so that I can include a black and white version. Printing the colored version in gray scale will give you a similar effect.
