What educators are saying

This was a great activity to push my higher thinkers to "think outside of the box" and stretch their learning.
I used this with my higher learners as an extension and they loved it! It was just the right amount of struggle and open-ended learning.

    Description

    Are you looking for challenging math problems that keep your students engaged, apply the math you have taught, and meet the standards of the Common Core or other rigorous math standards? Looking for quick, low-prep, ready-to-print math projects that are rigorous and meaningful? NOW WITH DIGITAL SLIDES!

    Perfect for when you...

    • need something for fast finishers
    • want something easy for a sub
    • are between units and want to focus on problem-solving
    • have an observation and want to showcase high-level thinking
    • want to work on collaborative work and math talk
    • need something for a math station or math workshop
    • want to use technology to provide students with quality math tasks

    This set of 9 challenges (3 sets of 3 tasks) can be used in a number of ways…as whole class explorations, as small group challenges, or as independent work for those students needing something more. In my classroom, these are whole-class explorations where students work in teams, share ideas, guess and check their ideas—and then present their solutions.

    The problem solving and math applications are high level and meaningful. See what you think! Three separate challenges are included, each taking several class periods. For some, metric pages are included as well for those teachers teaching outside the U.S.!

    Appropriate for grades 3-5—depending on skill level and level of support offered. Download the preview to see exactly what you get--I don't think you will be disappointed. You can see exactly what problems are included in each individual listing.

    Tell and write time to the nearest minute and measure time intervals in minutes. Solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes, e.g., by representing the problem on a number line diagram.
    Use the four operations to solve word problems involving distances, intervals of time, liquid volumes, masses of objects, and money, including problems involving simple fractions or decimals, and problems that require expressing measurements given in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Represent measurement quantities using diagrams such as number line diagrams that feature a measurement scale.

    Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
    Multiply a whole number of up to four digits by a one-digit whole number, and multiply two two-digit numbers, using strategies based on place value and the properties of operations. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
