Adding 2-Digit Decimals Puzzle Activities - print and digital

3 decimal puzzles to help students strengthen their understanding of decimal addition and build number sense. The puzzles are easily differentiated to meet the needs of your students. Ideas for differentiating are included in the PDF.

Puzzle #1 has 4 blank spaces and comes with 6 sorting decimals. Students figure out which decimals will add to the rows and columns. You can choose to give students all 6 sorting decimals with the puzzle to make the puzzle more challenging, or only the 4 sorting decimals that correctly complete the puzzle.

Puzzle #2 has 6 blank spaces and comes with 6 sorting decimals. To decrease the challenge of this puzzle, you can choose to sort one of the sorting decimals onto the puzzle before giving it to students.

Puzzle #3 has 8 blank spaces with 8 sorting decimals. It is a 3x3 grid with the middle decimal filled in. This will be the most challenging puzzle.

Includes both print and digital versions of the 3 puzzles. The digital versions are drag-and-drop in GOOGLE Slides. If you choose to differentiate the puzzles, you can make an extra copy of the Slides file and delete the "distractor" numbers from puzzle #1 and/or sort one (or more) of the numbers onto puzzle #2 before sharing with students. An answer key is included.
