Riddles are a great way to make a boring assignment fun.

However, I found students knew the answer to the riddle and just chose the answers to fill in the letters without doing any of the math. This way, students have to create the riddle before they can answer it.

This bundle contains mathematical and word problems that are aligned with the 6th Grade Common Core Standards.

Here is what is included in the Bundle
