📐 Math learning should be active, joyful, and meaningful—and that’s exactly what you get with the new Hands-On Tabletop Math Games now available on Legends of Learning. Developed in partnership with 10Story Learning, this collection of 25+ printable games is designed to help Grades 3–5 students build deep conceptual understanding through movement, collaboration, and play.

These aren’t just paper-based alternatives to screen time. They’re powerful tools for math instruction—aligned to key standards and crafted to fit seamlessly into your existing routines.

✋ Hands-On = 🧠 Minds-On

Research shows that when students move, manipulate, and collaborate, they retain more. These games invite students to roll dice, place tiles, measure distances, and build structures—while also solving math problems, applying strategies, and making sense of concepts together.

Whether they’re comparing fractions in Top Dog, graphing ordered pairs in 4Square, or dividing whole numbers in Peas in a Pod, students are doing real math thinking—with joy.

📚 Built for What You’re Already Teaching

Every game in the collection is standards-based and tightly aligned to the content you’re covering. You’ll find:

• Fraction operations
• Graphing and coordinates
• Measurement and data
• Multiplication and area
• Place value, rounding, and more

No need to reinvent your lesson plan—just choose the game that matches your target skill, print the materials, and go.

🧮 Perfect for Math Centers, Stations, and Screen-Free Days

These games are low-prep, high-impact. They’re ideal for:

🎯 Small-group instruction or rotations
⏱️ Early finisher activities
🌟 Enrichment or intervention
📋 Sub plans or flexible Fridays
💬 Building classroom community through shared play

💡 Teacher Tip: Make Math More Active! Bring math to life with Hands-On Tabletop Math Games—25+ printable, standards-aligned activities that get students moving, collaborating, and thinking deeply. Try a weekly “Game of the Week” to build excitement and reinforce key concepts.

Here are a few quick ideas to help you launch successfully:

✅ Keep a “game of the week” station to build routine

✅ Use the games during review week before assessments
✅ Let students reflect afterward with sentence frames like “Today I learned…”
✅ Pair students intentionally for peer support

Sneak Peek: Student Favorites! Not sure where to start? Here are some early favorites from teachers:

❄️Fraction Frosting

Fraction Frosting is a competitive game where students build donuts using fractional pieces.  The game reinforces recognition of unit fractions and combining fractions to make a whole. (3.NF.A.1) 

🃏 Draw a Card

In Draw a Card, players draw digital cards that prompt them to identify shapes, name attributes, or draw irregular quadrilaterals and advance along a game path. The game builds fluency with recognizing and classifying quadrilaterals. (3.G.A.1)

⚡Power Slide

In Power Slide, teams slide an object from a start zone, aiming to get as close to the power zone as possible. The distance from the slider to the power zone is measured with a ruler and recorded on the scorecard. Power Slide develops skills in measurement, line plots, and data interpretation. (3.G.A.1)

🎲 4Square

4Square is a competitive coordinate plane game for two players or teams. Players strategically select coordinates to build connections that can form squares one unit on each side. 4Square builds fluency with ordered pairs  and working  in the coordinate plane. (5.G.A.1, 5.G.A.2)
