Part Part Whole Mat

The classic part part whole mat with one whole box on top linked to two part boxes below, showing how the parts combine to make the whole.

Create a part part whole mat. One labeled Whole box at the top holding 10, connected by two straight lines to two labeled Part boxes below holding 6 and 4. Large legible numbers, clear labels, clean box outlines. White background.

Blank Part Part Whole Template

A blank part part whole template with empty boxes for the whole and two parts, ready to fill in by hand during guided practice.

Create a blank part part whole template. One empty Whole box at the top labeled Whole, connected by two straight lines to two empty Part boxes below each labeled Part. Clean box outlines, generous white space inside each box for writing. White background.

Part Part Whole to 10

A part part whole mat for number bonds to 10, showing the whole of 10 split into two parts that add up to ten.

Create a part part whole mat for a number bond to 10. One Whole box at the top holding 10 connected by two lines to two Part boxes below holding 7 and 3. Large legible numbers, color-coded boxes, clear labels. White background.

Part Part Whole Bar Model

A bar model version of the part part whole relationship, with a single whole bar on top and two part bars below that combine to its length.

Create a part part whole bar model. One long horizontal Whole bar at the top labeled 15, with two shorter Part bars below it lined up end to end labeled 9 and 6 so their combined length equals the whole. Large legible numbers, clear labels, clean outlines. White background.

What is a part part whole generator?

A part part whole generator is a tool that creates a printable box model showing how a whole number breaks into two parts. The part part whole mat is a K-2 number sense model: a single Whole box sits on top, connected by two lines to two Part boxes below. Students see that the two parts combine to make the whole, and that the whole can be split into parts. Figviz uses AI to draw the mat so every box, label, and number is placed cleanly. You can make a filled mat to teach a fact or a blank mat to use as a practice worksheet, all without any design software.

How to use the part part whole mat

Enter the whole: type the total number you want to model, for example 10 or 20.
Enter the two parts: list the two numbers that combine to make the whole, such as 6 and 4.
Choose filled or blank: a filled mat shows all three numbers, while a blank mat leaves one box empty for students to solve.
Pick a style: Classic for clean black-and-white printing, Colorful to color-code the whole and the parts, or Minimal for a low-ink worksheet.
Choose an orientation: portrait (3:4) suits a single large mat, landscape (4:3) fits a wider handout, and square (1:1) exports cleanly for digital platforms.

Part part whole vs number bond

A part part whole mat and a number bond show the same relationship in two different shapes. A number bond uses circles: a whole circle on top linked to two part circles below. A part part whole mat uses boxes or rectangles instead of circles, which gives more room to write and makes the model feel like distinct containers students can move counters into. Many teachers introduce the part part whole mat first because the boxes look like trays for grouping objects, then move to the number bond once students understand the idea. Both build the same foundation for addition and subtraction, so you can use whichever visual fits your class. Figviz can generate both, so you can match the model to your curriculum.

Using part part whole for addition and subtraction to 10 and 20

Addition to 10: fill both Part boxes (for example 6 and 4) and have students add them to find the Whole, building fluency with number bonds to ten.
Addition to 20: use larger parts such as 9 and 6 so the whole reaches into the teens, extending the model to facts within twenty.
Subtraction as a missing part: fill the Whole box and one Part box, then leave the second Part box blank. Students subtract to find the missing part, which shows how subtraction undoes addition.
Finding the whole: fill both parts and leave the whole blank to practice combining, the reverse of the subtraction setup.
Fact families: one mat captures a whole and two parts, which generate two addition and two subtraction sentences, linking all four facts.

Can I get a blank part part whole template?

Yes. To generate a blank part part whole template, describe the structure you want: for example "a blank part part whole mat with one empty whole box on top and two empty part boxes below." Figviz draws the boxes and connecting lines with empty space inside, so you can print copies and fill them in by hand during a lesson, or annotate them digitally in any PDF editor. Blank mats are useful for co-creating the model with students and for timed practice where learners find the missing part or whole.
