Description
This Back to School Math Mystery Differentiated Bundle contains all of the printable and Google Slide worksheet grade versions for the Case of The Cursed Classrooms available (Grades 1-8). This bundle is great if you need to differentiate within your classroom because the clues are interchangeable between the grade editions (except 1st Grade). You may also find this a good option to customize this math mystery to better suit your class. Ideal for the beginning of the school year to assess where your students are at with some skills.
EASY PREP, just prints and solve >> OR >> go paperless with the Google Slides option provided to use for Distance Learning. Your students can complete the Google Slides on their computer with the new editable text overlays that I've added on top of the original worksheets. Use the video to introduce the activity in a fun way. After viewing, students must continue with the worksheets part of the activity to solve the case.
Within the download you will receive:
- The math mystery PDF files for each grade level (1st-6th)
- Optional Google Slides to use if you prefer to assign via Google Classroom
- An editable suspects list with two premade alternative lists to change the mystery solution
- The MP4 video file for the Video Hook (optional to use to introduce this activity in a fun way).

How long will this activity take? Time to complete will vary anywhere between 30mins - 2 hours or more! It mainly depends on how familiar your students are with the math mystery format, as well as how difficult they find the math skills covered in the particular mystery. Please check the math skills outlined in the clues above to help determine suitability for your class. If attempting to solve all in one go, it can generally take up a good part of your school day. I highly recommend pacing this activity by giving students one clue at a time. Once the whole class has completed a clue, then move on to the next clue either within the same lesson or the next math session. New math content presented? Make a lesson out of it by modeling the math before diving into the clue. I like to say, "We must learn something new before attempting the next clue."
