5th Grade Math Mystery Holiday Bundle: Fun Math Review Activities End of Year

Math Mysteries for the HOLIDAYS collection! 5th Grade Edition. These fun math mystery activities will get your students excited about doing math review! Save time and money with this Math Mystery HOLIDAY bundle for Grade 5!

Easy prep! Just Print & Solve! Or go paperless with the new Google Docs option provided within your download.

Distance Learning Update: I've added a Word Document within the folder that contains a Google Doc link to share this resource with your students via Google Classroom or Drive. Parts of the pages are editable, so your students can complete them without printing them. Please note you will need to make a copy of the Google Slides to your drive before you can edit.

Students must use their math skills to unlock clues. Then, use their powers of deduction to narrow down a list and solve the case!

Bonus: Mystery Detective Badges & Fun Avatar Printable Tags added to this pack!

Preparation

- Print the student pages, staple or place

them in a folder, and your students are set to go.

- OR for a digital option, assign the Google Slides provided via Google Classroom. You will need to make a copy for each student.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multiple Uses

- Suitable for independent, pairs, or group work.

- Use as part of your math centers, add to your sub tubs, make it part of your early finisher tasks, give for homework, or make it part of your classroom practice/review sessions.

I recommend pacing this activity by giving students one clue at a time. Once the whole class has completed a clue, then move on to the next clue, either within the same lesson or the next math session. New math content presented? Make a lesson out of it by modeling the math before diving into the clue. I like to say, "we must learn something new before attempting the next clue."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How long will each mystery activity take?

Time to complete will vary anywhere between 30mins - 2 hours or more! It mainly depends on how familiar your students are with the math mystery format and how difficult they find math skills covered in the particular mystery. Please check the math skills outlined in the clues above to help determine suitability for your class.
