I liked it for decimals and fractions. I wish it was a little larger, it was a bit small and I had to enlarge it to make it useable for my students. A really good number of questions.

I was really excited about this product, but some of the pictures don't fit with standard tangrams and some do. I had to redraw the ones that didn't fit, so that my students would be able to use it. With no answer key I had to figure them out first, and I still haven't figured out the green frog. It is a VERY creative idea and I'm excited for my students to use it, but I had to redo the outlines myself which took a lot of time.
Edit: thank you for the instructions, they were helpful. I will be purchasing your polar bear and panda bear tangram activities because I do like them. For my students I want as little confusion as possible, that's why I had to redraw the others. Thank you. :)

I'm really sorry that you are having trouble. The last couple of pages are suppose to have a 'recap' of the story which includes solutions. I'll check to see what happened and re-post it. I'll let you know when I've got that done.
Thanks for alerting me to the concern.
Mary Alice
Emma,
I'm working on this. In the mean time, let me see if I can help you with the solution to the 'frog'. Number the tangram pieces ! & 2 for the larger triangles; 3 for the medium triangle; 4 & 5 for the small triangles; 6 for the square and 7 for the parallelogram.
Going from left to right on the top place pieces 1, 6, 3,7 &5 (in that order). That leaves pieces 4 & 2 for the bottom. Let me know if this helps.
Mary Alice
Emma, (5/1/13)
I used the tangram pieces provided with the file and each illustration 'worked'. What I'm curious about -- if the pieces worked for some - they should have worked for all. Look at the new file and see if your solutions match mine -- maybe that was the problem. You are absolutely correct -- young children should not be confused - however, sometimes that causes them to scratch their heads and look at problems differently!

Hello,
Just wanted to know if all pass around cards have a denominator of 10 as shown in the thumbnail. I love the idea of pass around cards and the many things I can do with them, but I was also looking for number lines with different denominators.
Thanks for your quick response! It's a great product, we will use it for a review.

If you take a look at the 'preview' file you will see that not all have a denominator of 10. Without going back and double checking - I don't think any of them go over 10.

carolinc re: I have Who Has - least common multiple
I found a couple errors in your game. The LCM of 16 and 18 is 144 and I don't see a card that matches that. Also the LCM of 6 and 3 is 6 and that is already used. If I follow the cards in order that they are printed it shows the answer to the LCM of 6 and 3 as being 3.

My understanding with TpT is that once you purchase you can make as many copies for your use as you want. They just ask that you do not copy and give them to other teachers. Let me know if that is not the case.

Scipi (TpT Seller) re: InLine (basic addition fact practice)
I saw your store on the home page of Teachers Pay Teachers; so, I thought I would look at your freebie. I left you a rating. Well done! I, too, was a math resource teacher for our public school system for many years. I now teach remedial math on the college level.
I do have a couple of suggestions that might help you to better market your products. Add some clipart or add color to the cards. Buyers like that for some reason. Also, create a separate cover page which can then be used as an attractive thumbnail to entice buyers. Make the second page your directions or suggestions page. Use the footer to put the copyright symbol, your name and date of creation on EVERY page. Items, especially free ones, have been "stolen" from TPT and posted on other sites to be sold. You have to protect all of your creations. Also number your pages.
Since you have a math background, I’d appreciate your input on my either of my freebies listed below.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been sharing the 'In Line' activity with teachers for years - and choose to not use color because of the expense -- when you are printing 100's of copies. The last dozen or so postings to TpT (if they are newer creations) are in color -- teachers can probably swing that cost when they are only making 1-2 copies. I'll take a look at your work. Thanks again.

Cynthia Murray re: I Have, Who Has? Primary Geometric Shapes
Is there any way to increase the size of the cards? I did not realize that they were so small.
February 10, 2012
Mary Alice Hatchett (TpT Seller)
The cards are set up as 'business card' size - I don't know of anyway to increase the size. You might try copying the last 2 pages (pages with the cards) and setting the percentage to 150%. I've never tried that - so I'm not sure if that will work or not. I've used this size with MANY young students -- so I'm curious if you are using them with vision impaired students. Please let me know -- that may be something that I need to think about.

jsells re: I Have, Who Has? Geometric shapes
I have 29 students - is there any way I could play this with the whole class?
February 4, 2012
Mary Alice Hatchett (TpT Seller)
Jsells,
Here are a couple of ideas:
1. Probably the easiest thing to do is to divide your class into 2-4 smaller groups. Make enough copies of the cards for each group (consider running each set on a different color of paper) and letting each group play. Having each group read aloud could be a problem -- so suggest that each group form a circle & they only speak loud enough for the members of their circle can hear. Each student in this small group will have to deal with more than one card. When I use this, I usually have the students pull their desk into a cluster (so that they have the desk tops available) as they read their cards they place them in a circle – so it forms a circle of correct responses (sort of like an attribute train). Student groups could also sit on the floor – if that is OK with your campus.
2. Another option is to have the extra 9 students serve as referees.
3. Another idea is to have the 9 extras buddy with someone (maybe someone that needs assistance).
Hope this is of help –
Thanks for visiting my TpT store.

When I use this, I usually have the students pull their desk into a cluster (so that they have the desk tops available) as they read their cards they place them in a circle – so it forms a circle of correct responses (sort of like an attribute train). Student groups could also sit on the floor – if that is OK with your campus.
2. Another option is to have the extra 9 students serve as referees.
3. Another idea is to have the 9 extras buddy with someone (maybe someone that needs assistance).
Hope this is of help –
Thanks for visiting my TpT store.

Thank you for your quick response. I noticed that there are 20 cards. What do you do if you have more than 20 students?

Jenkap,
You could let 2 students hold 1 card. Or give a plain paper print out of the cards -- to 1 student and let them be the 'umpire' --- keeping track of the correct answers. (they pretty much follow in the order printed)
Hope you don't have too many more students over 20! Get's a lot to handel!

I purchased the I have, who has money activity. It's only two pages. I don't have the the directions nor student reponse sheet. It doesn't appear to be a downloading issue. Is there supposed to be more? Thanks.

Jenkap,
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. The problem has been fixed (I hope). There should be 5 pages: directions, 2 pages of cards, student response sheet, and a solution sheet.
Thanks for visiting my store, I hope you and your students enjoy this activity as much as mine do.
