Description

Riddles are a great way to make a boring worksheet 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.


* Perfect for centers, homework or independent/group practice
* Engaging activity for students to practice
* Answer Key included

Worked great as a review with students- over Zoom. Students worked in breakout rooms together on them and had fun.

Students love riddles! I love this one because they have to figure out both the question and answer to the riddle!

Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor. For example, express 36 + 8 as 4 (9 + 2).
