Numbers Playdough Mats – Numbers 0–9 and Math Symbols This resource provides playdough mats for the numbers 0–9 and the math symbols plus (+), minus (−), and equals (=) . It is designed for hands-on math learning and supports early number understanding through simple and structured activities. Students build the numbers and symbols directly on the mats using playdough. They roll, press, and shape the dough to match the printed outlines. This helps students learn the shape and structure of numbers in a clear and visual way. The resource includes color and black-and-white versions of all mats. The color version offers strong visual guidance. The black-and-white version is suitable for calm learning environments, reduced visual input, or printing with less ink. Students may also color the black-and-white mats if desired. Learning Goals Recognize numbers from 0 to 9 Practice correct number formation Develop early number sense Understand simple math symbols Improve fine motor skills and hand strength Support visual perception and focus How to Use Students can: Build individual numbers with playdough Match quantities (for example: three dough balls for the number 3) Build simple equations such as 2 + 1 = Use small objects like counters, beads, stones, or dough balls The mats can be used: in math centers during free work time in small groups in one-on-one instruction for intervention or practice sessions The mats can be laminated for repeated use. What Is Included Playdough mats for numbers 0–9 Playdough mats for + − = Color version Black-and-white version A simple recipe for homemade playdough Classroom Use This resource is suitable for: Kindergarten Early elementary grades Special education Inclusive classrooms ESL / ELL students The material is easy to prepare and easy to use. No additional explanation is required. Numbers Playdough Mats – Numbers 0–9 and Math Symbols

Theoretical & Experimental Probability: Hands-on Math Task with Fractions and Percentages
Math, Percentages, Fractions, Statistics, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Theoretical and Experimental Probability: A Hands-On Math Exercise (with Fractions and Percentages) This is a ready-to-use, engaging, two-page math activity designed for intermediate students in grade levels 4 through 7. The product lets your students easily conduct a simple probability experiment that will help them grasp the concepts of theoretical and experimental probabilities. They will also tie this learning into other math topics by converting fraction results into percentages. Items Needed: Paper bags filled with items that are red, yellow blue, and green. Ideal items can be Legos, blocks or counters. Bags should contain amounts of items that will easily convert from fractions to percentages- so 5 items, 10 items, 20 items, or 25 items are ideal. Features: Fits seamlessly into any probability or percentage unit Serves as excellent practice for reinforcing equivalent fraction and percentage concepts How to Use: Split students into small groups. Give each group a bag of items and a worksheet (double-sided) for each member. Students will explore their bag: count the total number of items, count how many there are of each colour, write each colour as a fraction, and convert that to a percentage. This is the theoretical probability of each event. Then they perform the experiment: pulling one item from the bag and replacing it twenty times. They will use a tally chart to record the colours pulled. They will turn their results (fractions out of 20) into percentages. This is the experimental probability. Finally, students reflect on if the theoretical and experimental probabilities matched or did not and why that could be. Grades to Use With: This activity is designed for students in grades 4-7 who are learning about equivalent fractions, percentages, and probability experiments. What's Included: 3 page PDF: Title Page and 2-page handout. Copy double sided and you are ready to go!
