⭐Math Skills Required to Unlock Clues⭐
There are five clues to crack to solve the mystery:
- Clue 1: Converting Decimals to Fractions
- Clue 2: Multiplying Integers
- Clue 3: Least Common Multiple
- Clue 4: Solve One-Step Equations (with fractions and decimals involved)
- Clue 5: Calculating the Mean (Answers are either whole or decimals to the tenths)
Students must use critical thinking skills to determine which clues tell them to eliminate from the list of possible hideouts.
>> Pack includes a mystery declaration sheet, answer sheets, an elimination guide, an editable suspect list, and printable awards.
How long will this activity take?
The time to complete will vary anywhere between 30 minutes and 2 hours! It mainly depends on how familiar your students are with the math mystery format and how difficult they find math skills covered in the particular mystery. Please check the math skills outlined in the clues above to help determine suitability for your class. I recommend pacing this activity by giving students one clue at a time. Once the whole class has completed a clue, move on to the next clue 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." There are lots of ways to implement this activity in your classroom; learn more in the blog post link below:
