So engaging!
I am my students love these! It keeps their hands busy while we work on concepts.
This was a good activity, just a few small errors
I really enjoyed using this unit, however on the sketch notes age and shape are swapped. I didn't catch it until after we had taken all of our notes and were practicing.
Love these Resources
Every time I purchase from Teacher Thrive, I am beyond happy to have such a complete and ready to go source that perfectly aligns with the standard.
Great Resource for Gate
Really love this resource for my GATE students. It's the perfect comprehension questions for them.

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.
