Description
Summer Math Centers just got a lot more engaging! These fun logic problem puzzles will challenge your students and get them thinking about addition and subtraction of decimals in a whole new way. These are ideal as early finisher tasks, morning tubs, or partner math centers. They also make a fantastic addition to your problem-solving routine.
For each of the 20 logic puzzles, your students will find the value of each symbol and record it on the accompanying recording sheet.
👉 Printable and Digital Versions included - This resource is included in both PDF version for printing as well as in Google Slides™️ version for projecting in your classroom. This makes it easy for you to use in small groups, as an independent math center, or as a whole-class discussion.
These puzzles work with decimal numbers to tenths, and will be surprisingly challenging as they involve reasoning and algebraic thinking. They are best suited to Grades 5-6, but even some Grades 7-8 students may be sufficiently challenged with this set.
⭐️ There are many ways to use these Logic Problems. Try them as:
- early finisher tasks
- morning math tubs
- an "around the room" gallery walk - post the cards around the room and have students circulate, answering them as they go
- math stations (let students work in partners, and listen to the amazing math conversation they will have as they use critical thinking and reasoning skills!)
- small group intervention tasks
- whole-class math warm-ups or math talks
If you are like most teachers and teach a class with various ability levels, I highly recommend you provide differentiation for your students. You want to provide just enough challenge for each student but not SO MUCH challenge that this activity becomes frustrating.
To help you make differentiation simple, I've bundled all 8 sets of these Summer Logic Puzzles. Assign specific sets to students, or lay them all out and have students choose the set that provides the perfect amount of challenge for their brain! (This can be a great way to empower your students and teach responsibility for their own learning.)
