Description
⭐️Great MINI-MATH COMPETITION / Enrichment / for a SUB
A PROGRESSIVE PUZZLE is a set of puzzles that must be solved in sequential order. The solution to the first puzzle is needed in order to solve the next puzzle, and this continues with each successive puzzle. Students will use a variety of critical reading and thinking skills as they work their way from one puzzle to the next. All four puzzles can be printed on one page as two-sided copies.
This MATH and LOGIC progressive puzzle set has a DABBLING with DICE theme. To start, a puzzle game is in progress, but we don’t know the rules! Students must work their way through the four puzzles in order to find out how the game is played. This set is easily adapted for use with students at varying ability levels since tips and hints are provided to help students complete the puzzles. This would be a fun end-of-year review, and is also perfect for a substitute or as a fun small group contest in your classroom. The puzzles are (1)
What’s the Rule? puzzle, (2) a cross-number puzzle, (3) a letter equations puzzle, and (4) a cryptogram.
The TEACHER PAGE includes tips and hints you can provide to students as needed, and suggestions as to how the hints can be delivered so that students are sufficiently challenged without reaching total frustration. Basic computational and logical thinking skills are the key skills needed to complete the activities.
