What educators are saying

My students really enjoyed this. We did a different clue each day and students were excited to figure out who had done it.
An excellent resource that engaged my students. It was well graded and the students enjoyed using. I would recommend this resource to help students with the topic directed numbers.

HERE’S WHAT TEACHERS LIKE YOU ARE SAYING…

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Ginger L says, “This was a very engaging activity. My students love to predicting the pet, its name, and location before working the activity. It was fun to see the reactions as they worked the stations and eliminated choice to either prove or disprove their predictions”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Lacia B. says, “My students LOVED this activity! We use the house system at our school. I grouped them by houses and they competed to solve the mystery. The students were engaged and worked together so well on this activity. I will definitely be using this in my classroom.“

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Elizabeth H. says, “I used this during state testing and we were unable to use internet while other grades were testing. I had students begging to work on it before class started and asking if they could take it home to finish.”
