Description
Check out these 4th grade Mini Math Missions place value task cards! Each of the 24 unique task card is like a single puzzle escape room, CSI mystery, or math brain teaser. Rounding and understanding the value of a digit, and comparing numbers are the essential skills your students will use on their "top secret" missions.
Your students have been hired to work in the Mini Math Missions Department of the Mathematical Security Agency. Their job is to help field agents solve puzzles to assist them in their top secret missions. A wide variety of spy-themed challenges will have your students using their knowledge of rounding to find the getaway car, understanding the value of a digit will help students narrow down a list of suspects, and comparing numbers with up to six digits with <, >, and = symbols will help the field agents from getting discovered.
These challenging task card missions are perfect for bellringer/warm-up activities, exit tickets, centers, early finishers, or for enrichment and test review. The more challenging missions are great for giving students the chance to collaborate to solve puzzles. Keeping students engaged is also easy as each task card includes a unique mission. These math missions provide a balance of fun and rigor.
