After making my letter tiles and some games to go with them, I thought that number tiles and games would be a good things to make as well. I made these tiles to be the same size at the others (one inch square). I included as many number-value concepts as I could easily fit on a small square. I made my tiles so that one side was the numbers and one side was the number concept (word, clock, 10-frame, or domino). Putting them back to back provides a "control of error." I have included a colored set and a black-and-white set.
The tiles can be used by themselves, for math problems, or in these "number hunt" game boards that I created. The numbers can get tossed in a bowl or sack and the players can take turns pulling out one number at a time. If they find a match, they can keep the tile. If they already have that number on their board, then they should put the tile back and "lose a turn." The first person to fill up their board is the winner.
The games could also be done individually, with one set of tiles instead of all four. I have created black and white versions for classroom settings and color versions for small groups or homeschool letters.
