Maya Math Game

Round 1
Maya Symbols
Smart move. Maya math is easy, but you need to learn the rules. As you already learned, the Maya used only 3 symbols to represent all numbers. These symbols are often represented by beans, sticks, and shells.
 | A dot represents the number 1 |  | A stick represents the number 5 |  | A shell represents the number 0 |
In Round 1 you will practice using the Maya symbols to represent the numbers 0 - 19.
Match the number with the correct symbols.
