Love this!
Great hands-on activity.
Great revision tool - thank you
I made a class set, and then multiples for facts that specific students needed extra practice with! I love that the answers are provided, so they can get repeated practice to reinforce unknown facts. Also, having the blank template allows for you to print and have students make their own math mat to practice!
My students enjoyed this resource. They could choose easier or harder levels and it was great having them practice those basic math computations mentally. We plan to play this game with our first grade buddies.
Great resource with a variety of ideas to build fluency and engage learners
This game is so fun!
I use as a center game during our subtraction unit to reinforce the concept. I have used plating cards and UNO cards with this center.
Good resource for independent and center work. My students used it to work on their math fluency.
This is an excellent hands on resource for numeracy! Students love cards games

Great Maths resource for Year 2, students enjoyed it.
I have added these to my math centers for kids to play! This is not a preferred skill for most, but they are more open to playing this game because it doesn't seem as difficult to them.
These are great games for practicing subtraction with my students.
My students use these when they finish up their math, early. We will continue using these during our WIN time. I like that they are quick and can be used with very few items. My third graders love these.
These are great for my math centers for both my 1st and 2nd graders.
This is a great resource to work with small groups.
I use this during independent work time for math fact practice.
This resource was incredibly helpful and I appreciate it.
This is a very comprehensive and thorough resource!
Perfect for math centers for students to practice fluency
