I created this activity to as one way provide differentiation for my gifted and advanced learners. This will provide challenge for most fifth or sixth graders, but I would only recommend it gifted/talented third graders. Students use number sense and logic to solve number riddles.

This activity contains two color-coded sets of 12 task cards each. I’ve also provided a black and white set that can be divided into two, three, or four sets that you will need to color code. This activity also includes teacher suggestions, a number logic table to use to model the activity or to place in a writeable pouch, answer key, and blank answer sheets. This activity can be self-correcting. See preview for a sample of the first two task cards.
