Good resource, when split in half!

Rated 5 out of 5

Met expectations

Worked well for a math center, but I found it worked best when I gave the group only half of the cards at a time. I put the other half in a different bag. When the students finished matching up the first half of the cards, I switched and gave them the other bag. All the cards at once was too much and frustrated a few of my students. The worksheets included were super cute and easy for students to use.
