What educators are saying

My students love these mini math mysteries. They are always quietly working toward solving the mystery. This is the prefect item for review or for days when you need the students busily engaged!

Rated 5 out of 5

My students really enjoyed these mini math mysteries! They were great for the last few weeks of school to use for early finishers or when we needed a break from reviewing for state testing.

Description

This Summer Math Packet contains TEN fun Mini-Math Mysteries in both printable and digital formats! This packet is ideal for 5th Grade or any class working with the math skills and content listed below.

>> Also available on Easel with the option of audio reading of the stories.

What are Mini-Math Mysteries?

Mini-Math Mysteries are a fun 'game-like' one-page activity to practice math skills. They are a condensed version of a mystery and follow a simple elimination structure where students will be using their answers to eliminate possibilities. The mystery story is short (a couple of sentences to a paragraph), and unlike my regular mysteries, there are no clue messages or video hooks for these. I've designed these for educators who want something quick and short to assign to students while still keeping it fun!

Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators (including mixed numbers) by replacing given fractions with equivalent fractions in such a way as to produce an equivalent sum or difference of fractions with like denominators.
