Using this Digital Math Activity

There are visual instructions for students to refer to before starting the activity.

They will go to the first math mat and look at the problem you have typed on it and they will say it out loud.

Then they will use the moveable base ten blocks to show the problem on the mat.

For example, if the problem is 12 + 25, they will take one ten rod and 2 one units in one color and put them on the mat. Then they will take 2 ten rods and 5 one units of another color and add those to the mat.

Then they will count up all of the blocks to find the sum of the two numbers.

If students are subtracting on the mats, they will make the bigger number first and then take away blocks from there.

After they find the sum, they will type it in the box at the top right of the mats.

We hope that these Google Classroom and Seesaw math mats are very helpful to you and your students!
