Description
Multiplication facts can be a challenge to teach when students don’t begin with concrete visuals. Visualizing Multiplication Facts Math Tiles is a hands-on activity that takes students’ thinking beyond procedures and rote memorization. This engaging resource activates critical thinking and problem-solving skills while building a deep understanding of multiplication. Students must place 10 number tiles (0-9) on the task cards in order to correctly solve 4 different multiplication facts.
This resource is now provided in printable and digital formats (Google Slides).
This resource includes:
- 30 different Time to Tile PRINTABLE 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.

I can not get this file to download and I am so disappointed as I really want to use it. It will only copy the first couple pages and that is it.
This is not a spiral review. The weekly content has standards that have not yet been covered. Students can't have homework on things that they haven't learned yet.

I don't worry too much if there haven't been formal lessons on a particular concept; I treat those items more as a preview.

There is a problem with this resource. I purchased the digital version. However, there is no link for me to click on that gives me access to the documents virtually. I'm reaching out to the seller, please provide some guidance or refund me if possible? Thank you so much.
It was a good resource, but the inability to make any edits in the .PDF made sharing it digitally with the class nearly impossible. Very disappointed with this aspect. Good resource but this is a glaring issue.
The content was too hard for third grade. There needs to be a build in content and foundation. The skills were way over most of my students heads.
Also this is a rip off to not include the answer key with the questions. Why are you having people buy two separate things.

I couldn't tell by the preview, but are these separated into facts such as all 0s, or all 1s, etc? Or only mixed? Our district is moving to research based fact strategies and order so I'm looking for something to have them work/play with as we teach each one.
Also, because they are slides, they can be printed as well correct? I know the intent is online, but my students really need paper and pencil.
Hello! They are mixed facts, so you’ll have multiple facts on one card. You can print this resource or use it digitally. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Hello!
I bought this product and I believe that #1 has an error. On the colored version it is the yellow one. It says _____ rows of 3. This cannot be true because there are 3 rows of 7. I was hoping you could update the colored and B/W to fix this. Thank you :)
Hi Meghann! Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. We just uploaded a corrected version.
