here are 50 free, downloadable Splat! lessons. They’re sequenced in 10 levels to offer opportunities to focus on concepts ranging from identifying missing addends to understanding remainders to solving equations involving two or more variables.

The simple premise is that a set of dots is shown on a screen. A “splat” or blob covers some of the dots. The question is: “How many dots have been covered by the splat?” At higher levels, multiple splats appear, and fuel understanding of equations, remainders, variables, and eventually fractions.
