I like this idea! Clearly shows students what their algebra tiles should look like. It looks like there is a typo in the example. The first expression says 4(x^2 + 3) but it only shows 2 x^2 tiles. The second expression is 2x^2 + 6. The models match, but the expressions don't.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I have corrected the error. It is also a very handy way to manage all the small parts when you use the trays which can be purchased at many supermarkets.
