    Description

    Are you searching for engaging math enrichment activities tailored to 3rd and 4th grade students, focusing on critical thinking skills? These 120 math logic puzzles are designed to stimulate young minds while practicing multiplication and division facts and fact families. Math brain teasers offer an extra challenge for fast finishers or gifted students and can be used in an early finisher packet, morning brain teasers, or math centers for third or fourth graders. They're conveniently available as both printable brain teaser worksheets and digital formats via Google Slides. With 120 logic puzzles included in the bundle as early finisher activities, along with a recording sheet, and options for both color and black-and-white versions, these puzzles are perfect for the entire year.

    By buying the bundle, you save 50% off the price of the individual units.

    A digital version has now been added for use with Google Slides and Google Classroom. You can now use this resource for distance learning!

    There are 120 puzzles included that are perfect for every month of the year. These brain teasers help students practice finding unknowns in multiplication and division equations. Students get extra practice with missing factors, fact families, finding missing numbers in multiplication and division equations, and with standards 3.OA.4, 3.OA.6, and 3.OA.7. A recording sheet is now included to record answers on.

    An easy activity to slip into a math center or project whole group as a math number talk! There is both a color and black and white version included to best fit your needs. Answer keys are provided for self-checking or teacher convenience. These are appropriate for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade for practicing multiplication and division fact fluency and higher level thinking.

    When I use these in my classroom, I put them in a math center. I print them 4 to a page so they fit in the color task card boxes you can find at local stores. I have students solve each one and then provide them with the answer key for self-checking. It's easy to use and print-and-go. No prep required!

    This aligns with 2nd Grade Texas TEKS:

    • TEKS 2.6A: model, create, and describe contextual multiplication situations in which equivalent sets of concrete objects are joined
    • TEKS 2.6B: model, create, and describe contextual division situations in which a set of concrete objects is separated into equivalent sets

    This aligns with 3rd Grade Texas TEKS:

    • TEKS 3.4D: determine the total number of objects when equally-sized groups of objects are combined or arranged in arrays up to 10 by 10
    • TEKS 3.4E: represent multiplication facts by using a variety of approaches such as repeated addition, equal-sized groups, arrays, area models, equal jumps on a number line, and skip counting
    • TEKS 3.4F: recall facts to multiply up to 10 by 10 with automaticity and recall the corresponding division facts
    • TEKS 3.4H: determine the number of objects in each group when a set of objects is partitioned into equal shares or a set of objects is shared equally
    • TEKS 3.4J: determine a quotient using the relationship between multiplication and division
    • TEKS 3.5D: determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers when the unknown is either a missing factor or product

    This aligns with Florida BEST Standards (B.E.S.T.)

    • MA.3.NSO.2.2 Explore multiplication of two whole numbers with products from 0 to 144, and related division facts.
    • MA.3.NSO.2.4 Multiply two whole numbers from 0 to 12 and divide using related facts with procedural reliability.
    • MA.4.NSO.2.1 Recall multiplication facts with factors up to 12 and related division facts with automaticity.

    Standards

    to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
    Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 × 7.
    Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 56 ÷ 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares, or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a number of shares or a number of groups can be expressed as 56 ÷ 8.
    Determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers. For example, determine the unknown number that makes the equation true in each of the equations 8 × ? = 48, 5 = __ ÷ 3, 6 × 6 = ?.
    Understand division as an unknown-factor problem. For example, find 32 ÷ 8 by finding the number that makes 32 when multiplied by 8.
    Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division (e.g., knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers.
