The original 3 activities are differentiated with two versions of the same puzzle. One of the puzzles includes the author and title of the book as part of the puzzle to be solved, and the other includes only the quote from the book, with title and author given. While the problems are the same in both versions, the letters assigned to the problems are different and the problems are mixed up, so students that need fewer problems can still be successful with a different version of the same code.

All puzzles are set up with the conventional format for addition (carrying) and subtraction (including borrowing/regrouping). Answer keys are included.

Included in the 3 original resources:

Three different puzzles, two versions each

Version 1: With book title and author’s name part of the puzzle-

Version 2: Book title and author’s name given, solving for quote

All Answer Keys

A Practice Code (color & BW) to show students how to solve these types of puzzles.
