If you’ve ever taught a split grade, you already know it comes with a special set of challenges. You’re juggling two sets of curriculum expectations, trying to meet a wide range of student needs and wondering if this is all sustainable!

How to teach split grades? I’ve been in your shoes, and I’ve learned one simple truth: keeping things easy, effective, and inclusive is the key to surviving – and thriving – in a split-grade classroom. That’s exactly why I created my these Addition and Subtraction Digital Math Fact Fluency Slidesto help fellow teachers cut through the chaos and focus on what matters most: supporting your students.

Why Split Grades Need Smarter Resources

Split grades mean differentiation is non-negotiable. You’ve got students who are just getting confident with math facts and others who need more challenge or extra support. These no-prep digital math slides were designed to be used across second grade and third grade (Math Review and/or Support)—making them perfect for blended classrooms.

They’re also ideal if you’re supporting diverse learning needs, multi-level small groups, or even whole-class fluency review. Best of all? No printing, no cutting, no organizing. Just open and teach.

What’s Inside the Digital Math Slides?

You’re not just getting a set of worksheets turned digital. These slides are interactive, visual, and highly engaging—with a variety of math tasks built to strengthen fact fluency and reinforce core number sense concepts. Your students will practice:

  • Count On / Count Back

  • Ten Frames

  • Doubles & Subitizing

  • Skip Counting

  • Odd/Even

  • Missing Numbers

  • Ten More / Ten Less

  • Word Problems

  • Number Patterns

  • And more!

With over 120 slides, you’ll have more than enough material for your daily math warm-ups, bell work, spiral reviews, exit tickets, or even math centers.

Built-in Brain Breaks? YES PLEASE!

To keep students energized (and help YOU manage transitions), every set of 5 math slides includes a fun brain break movement slide. Think:

  • Slither Like a Snake

  • Twirl Like a Ballerina

  • Wobble Like Jelly

  • Creep Like a Tiger

  • Rock Around the Clock – Clockwise!

These short movement breaks are especially great for students who need sensory input or struggle with attention—and they make your math block feel a whole lot more fun and engaging.

Whether you’re teaching second grade, a 2/3 split, or using these slides to support early third graders who need fluency practice, these slides allow for built-in differentiation. You can:

  • Assign specific slides to individual students or groups

  • Use slides as reteach or extension activities

  • Choose the math skills that align with your pacing

No matter how you use them, your students are getting targeted math practice that’s both meaningful and developmentally appropriate.
