Description
These Number Pathway Puzzles offer endless opportunities for students to practice composing and decomposing numbers. Each individual board can be used with 4+ numbers, offering an incredible amount of flexibility for your classroom. Using “moves” (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal…teacher choice), students are working towards a “Target Number”. Then, students mentally simplify their pathway creating the most efficient equation.
