Follow the same instructions as Bean Bag Addition and Subtraction, but instead of adding or subtracting, have students multiply.
Follow the same instructions as Bean Bag Addition and Subtraction, but instead of adding or subtracting, have students divide.
Students will read a problem from a worksheet or flashcard. Have them reinterpret it, solve it, and then hop to that answer on the mat. Examples: ⅓ x 3 = 1…SO…1 x 3 ÷ 3 = 1 ¼ X 4 = 1…SO…1 x 4 ÷ 4 = 1 ¾ x 3 = 9/4…SO…3 x 3 […]
Clip a math worksheet on a clipboard. Have your student figure out the answers to the fraction problems by walking or jumping on the mat.
Important: Have students face the positive numbers when adding and the negative numbers when subtracting, and make a 180 degree turn for each negative sign (not including the first number in the equation). Two negatives require a 360 degree turn canceling the change in direction. Sample Questions: 4/3 – 5/3 = -3/4 – 1/4= 10/4 […]

Cover up all of the examples of one type of number, such as all of the percentages, all of the decimals, or all of the fractions on each block of the mat. Have students figure out what each would be based on the other information given on the block. For example, for the ⅓ block, […]
Write all of the percentages/fractions/decimals from the mat on note cards. Cover up all of the examples of one type of number, such as all of the percentages, all of the decimals, or all of the fractions on the mat.. Have students take turns matching a note card to its place on the mat. For […]
How many thirds in five? Have your student count how many thirds are in 5 by stepping on each third while counting their steps from one to fifteen. If your student’s counting is out of sync with their steps, have them go back and start over. To help them emphasize each whole number, you can […]
This floor mat offers a visual opportunity for students to understand the relationships between fractions greater than one and mixed numbers. For example, to have your student figure the mixed number equivalent to 8/3 ask your student, “How many whole numbers are in 8/3?” Have your student step on 8/3. Ask how many whole numbers […]
