5th Grade Valentine's Day Math Activity

This Valentine's Day Math Escape activity is based upon third and fourth-grade common core standards but can be used to enrich younger grades or challenge students who are struggling with older grades. I used this with my 6th/7th intervention and it was just the right level for them. (Check out the preview to see some of the problems!)

Math Escape Bundle

This challenge can be done individually, as a small group, or as a whole group. You can set it up as task cards or have each card placed in an envelope and they can open a new card as they complete each step. If this is set up as task cards, it can be used as a scoot activity. It does not need to be completed in order for the children to come to a final answer. For my small group intervention, we opened and read each clue to the group, and then collaborated to solve the clue together.

The task of this activity is that it is the week before Valentine's Day and Saint Valentine has lost the keys to the Valentine's Day store. You will work with Saint Valentine and Cupid to find out where Saint Valentine lost the keys! This activity will promote communication, cooperation, collaboration, and problem-solving skills.

Flexible options:

• One card a day, for 12 days leading up to Valentine's Day
• A few cards a day for the last week before break
• All of the cards at one time
• Scoot/ task card activity
• Small Groups
• Whole Group

There are no additional supplied needed for this activity and this can be printed in black and white if needed!
