Description

Perfect for an independent practice math center, these fun gingerbread man puzzles include four options: shape matching (2D & 3D), addition matching, teen numbers matching, and comparing numbers (0-5 and 5-10).


These math puzzles are part of a money-saving bundle. Check it out here!


Gingerbread Math Puzzles: What's Included?

Shape Matching

Students match representations of shapes.

Addition

Students match an addition expression (1-10) buttons and stripes on a gingerbread man.

Teen Numbers

Students match a numeral (11-20) to ten frames and an addition expression.

Comparing Numbers

Students assemble an image of a balance scale showing that a larger number of cookies is heavier than a smaller number of cookies.

A recording (or follow-up practice) sheet is included for each puzzle option.

Preparation and Storage Tips for Gingerbread Math Puzzles:

Choose from the color or black and white options to print onto cardstock. Laminate the puzzle cards and labels. Cut the puzzles apart.

These puzzles are color-coded for easy sorting (the black and white versions have different frame styles). They are sized to fit in zip-top sandwich bags or 4” x 6” plastic photo boxes. Tape the laminated label to the outside of the container.

Perfect timing to find this during our review on comparison during our gingerbread week. The pieces don't all align so kids have to be very aware of how they're putting the pieces together but they really enjoyed it.
