Crack the Code: Common Factors Encryption Worksheet | Differentiated Puzzle
Can your students break the code? In this engaging activity, students become "Code Breakers." They must find the Common Factors of specific number pairs to unlock a cipher and reveal a hidden secret message (a fun joke/riddle). BUILT-IN DIFFERENTIATION: We know every classroom has mixed abilities. This resource includes two versionsof the same puzzle: Level A (Scaffolded): Includes "Hint" columns (e.g., tells students how many factors to look for) to support struggling learners.Level B (Challe

Binary Math
This handout is used to help the students convert Binary Code into Base 2 numbers. 0's mean off, 1's mean on. Instead of using Base 10, teach the students base 2, convert, and perform the functions. This is the final product after a study of Binary Code and Base 2.
There are quite a few lessons online with Binary and Base 2, but I created this to go with what I found online.

SPIES! A GATE Adventure 18+ Contact Hours - Challenging and Engaging!
Your students will ask to stay in from recess for this. It is the most popular unit I've taught in 32 years, and it is packed with challenging critical thinking. We imagine students are training at the school for spies: mini survivor challenges, mini crossbows, a jewel heist, footprint mysteries, memory games, cipher disks, case files, messages hidden in gel caps. This unit is STEM and critical thinking at its coolest and finest, and we’ve thrown in reading, speaking and listening, and a social
