Description

Mastering factors & multiples is a challenge to math & critical thinking! Bring fun to the challenge with this engaging enrichment set of 48 math mystery riddles plus games that you and your students will love to use!

HERE'S HOW THESE MATH ELIMINATION RIDDLES WORK!

Choosing from nine numbers on each card, your students will determine the Secret Number by using math clues and critical thinking to eliminate eight of the options. With each riddle task card they complete, your students will determine factors and/or multiples for nine numbers. They'll have a great time and won’t even realize that they’ve completed 216 examples in each of the two sets, and with so much more fun than an average worksheet can provide!

Because the graphics in these sets aren't seasonal, you'll find yourself using these resources at any time during the school year!

What's included in this factors and multiples resource?

48 riddle cards, printing at four per page

✅ The same 48 riddles in full page format, ready to use on your interactive
board or on digital devices with your favorite apps

✅ A student recording page and answer key for each set

✅ A challenging set of three printable full page riddles for your most
advanced students to create independently.

✅ Two card games, "The Greatest Factor" and "The Lowest Factor"

✅ A ten-question self-correcting Easel assessment for Set 1

✅ Suggestions for more ways to use these cards in your math centers

The mixed practice in these sets will help you see which of your students "get it", and who might need a little bit more specific practice.

Here's a set specifically for factors.

Here's a set specifically for multiples.

Here are some ways that you might use these math task cards in your teaching!

* Use in a math center (math rotation) for individual or partner work

* Use the full-page riddle cards on your interactive board for whole class review or to focus attention at the beginning of a math lesson

* Display a card with your document camera as an engaging focus to start your math lesson.

* Use as a skills review rotation (aka "Scoot"), individually or with partners, with students moving to stations around the classroom to solve the clues

* Use for morning “bell ringers”

* Use as challenge work or for early finishers

* Use as an activity with classroom volunteers – a volunteer can work with individual students or partners and complete as few or as many as time allows!

* Use for math intervention, RTI, or tutoring - keep the fun in learning math!
