Ways to use the Addition Playdough Mat Printables
Setting up and storing the Addition Playdough Mats
These addition play dough mats are super simple to use. I keep dry erase markers around to write in the numbers. I have put our copies in sheet protectors
and had them stored in a binder
and pulled them out when we need to use them.
Using Playdough With Addition Playdough Mats
One of the easy way to use the addition mats is just using playdough. You can have loads of fun doing this. They put the playdough in two colors in the circles and then use a small playdough snake for the number line and then write in the equation.

Using Clear Counters With Addition Playdough Mats
Another hands-on item you can use with the addition playdough mats is clear counters. These are super simple and easy to use. You can pick two colors to use for the equations. Then have enough of each color to make the mat you are working on.
So we are working on 4 so we had at least 4 blue and 4 red. And sometimes extras in case one or two get lost.

Using Unifix Cubes With Addition Playdough Mats
I love using unifix cubes on the addition mats as well. Use they are not a circle shape but you can use any hands-on items for the places. You can pick two colors and use them on the mats. Plus they are easy to make sure you have at least ten of them.

Using Addition Flashcards With Addition Playdough Mats
Now you might be totally new to addition and say my child is not ready to do this. Well, start them off with a set of addition flashcards that match the mat. This gives them the equations they are working on. So they can build the addition on the mat.
They can see how they work through every way to add up to 6. Or really any addiition mat number you want. So they are not trying to pick numbers but just matching the equation on the card. This is a great way to use the addition mats for kids in kindergarten.
