All About Maine Puzzles For Lower Elementary

Is your class studying the magnificent state of Maine? This resource can help! Contained in this mini-book are puzzles and activities jam-packed with facts about the state for lower elementary students. Kids will enjoy discovering interesting details about Maine while they solve visual, mathematical, word play, and logic puzzles.

Each mini-book contains 15 puzzles. A cover page is included, along with a complete answer key. You can print the answer key to include with the mini-book and students can take it home to solve and enjoy. Or don't include the answer key and work through the mini-books together in class!

You can now also print these puzzles as a full paged booklet! This gives you more flexibility with how you use the puzzles. By printing from this version, you can print out only the puzzles that you need and give them to the students as fillers, homework, or early finishers.

Alternatively to printing, you also gain access to a digital version on Easel. Each page includes answer boxes and tips for the students. Some of the coloring pages are not included.
