Description
If missing-addend practice in your classroom usually turns into guessing, disengagement, or another worksheet students rush through, you’re not alone. Addition and subtraction with regrouping are tough skills—and repetitive drills don’t always build confidence.
This missing addend digital math game helps you move from low engagement and surface-level practice to focused, motivated problem-solving that students actually stick with.
Instead of worksheets, students solve missing number equations using 3-digit addition and subtraction with regrouping inside a self-checking Google Sheets activity. With each correct answer, students unlock mystery items and work toward revealing a hidden picture, turning essential math practice into a solve-and-search challenge that feels like a game.
No prep. No grading. Just meaningful math practice that works.
