More Math Mysteries
Since I have you here...I want to give you a peek at my newest math mystery! I have the 2nd and 3rd-grade ones done...The newest math mystery is called The Mystery of the Scrambled New Year's Snowman
I think this story came out really cute and I know your kids are gonna love it! I can't wait to use it with my little

| These are examples of the 2nd-grade questions. I am using the common core standards to come up with the questions for these books. If you have some suggestions or questions, leave a comment below. I'd love to hear from you! Click the pic to get one for your class! |

| These pages are the 3rd-grade version of the same book. Notice the degree of difficulty in the 3rd-grade version. Click the pic to get one for your class! |
I have had a request for a 1st-grade version. My biggest problem with a 1st-grade version is the reading part. So, for all of my first-grade buddies out there...I would love to hear your ideas on how you could use this with your firsties. I thought that using it with guided reading groups would work...I also have done these books with my whole class...they do the problems on their whiteboards and then write what page they think I should go to. I think you could have good discussions with the word problems as well.
Let me know what you think!
Happy New Year to everyone! I still have tomorrow off...then, it's back to my real life!

I love your math mysteries! My students completed the Christmas one right before break. It was wonderful as an independent study for my high-achievers. They were busy as I was working with my small group. Wonderful!
