Teachers need the materials necessary to provide effective math instruction. These materials include dot pattern cards with subitizing and groupitizing arrangements, as well as Cuisenaire rods, base 10 blocks, graphic organizers, and more. Our goal is to connect schools with existing instructional materials through established distributors, then create any needed materials that do not currently exist in the marketplace. We highly recommend our Mathemagical Playing Cards, Dot Cards, and Dice Cards – these tools are a true game-changer and the most important first step in implementing effective math instruction.
Playing Cards
Playing Cards are the ultimate tool for developing number sense while playing games! This standard 54-card deck features the ideal pip arrangements that strengthen our ability to subitize. Since there are no numerals, students will need to practice subitizing instead. Diamonds and spades feature the 5-group patterns from the dot cards, while hearts and clubs have dice and domino arrangements. Use these just like a regular deck of cards and play games like Go Fish, Go Make 10, Number War, Addition War, Integers War, and more!

Dot Cards
Dot Cards feature dots arranged into 5-groups, with the numbers 6-10 building off the arrangements learned for 1-5. This is a powerful visual for developing number sense that connects to finger representations and allows students to combine 5-groups together when adding, supporting decomposition and recomposition and the all-important strategy of making 10. Combine 2 sets and use them to teach doubles, as well as building and doubling teen numbers!

Dice Cards
Dice cards display the familiar dot patterns found on dice and dominoes. This set features numbers 0-10, represented in standard dice arrangements, including doubles and doubles +/-1. It also includes an additional card for 6 and 9, arranged into rows of 3. Use these dice cards to enhance understanding of doubles, near doubles, and whether each number is even or odd, while also illustrating various combinations that make up each number.
