Description
Make place value fun, visual, and hands-on with these spring-themed Butterfly Place Value Mats! Perfect for small group instruction, warm-ups, math centers, or independent practice, these mats help students build a strong understanding of teen numbers by composing and decomposing tens and ones in a playful, engaging format.
This refreshed resource now includes 15 mats:
- 5 Butterfly Mats with outlined squares to model ones and tens blocks
- 5 Numbered Mats with squares labeled 1–10 on wings and body for structured counting
- 5 Blank Butterfly Mats with no squares – perfect for open-ended exploration and drawing their own blocks!
Use them with place value blocks, linking cubes, dry-erase markers, or as part of your math toolkit to encourage flexible thinking and smooth the transition from concrete materials to mental strategies.
Ways to use these mats:
- Build numbers to 20 (or beyond with multiple mats!)
- Practice trading ones for tens visually
- Create a small-group math kit using bins, tubs, or drawers filled with common manipulatives and these visual aids
- Use for warm-ups, exit tickets, or targeted interventions
Why teachers love our Math Kit Play Mats:
- Supports visual learners
- Encourages playful, open-ended math talk
- Aligns with needs-led, flexible small group teaching
- Makes abstract number work feel concrete and fun
