Description
Math Puzzles are a great option for your early finishers, math centers, enrichment opportunities, morning work, or even intervention groups. Each puzzle focuses on a math skill. There are 10 pieces to each puzzle. Each puzzle piece has a math problem for the student to solve. Then the student assembles the puzzle by putting their pieces in order from least to greatest.
These puzzles also come with a student checklist. Each puzzle has a title in the upper right hand corner. This is an easy way for the student to identify the puzzle on his/her checklist.
***UPDATE: There is now a monthly math puzzle student recording sheet included in this bundle! Students write the name of the puzzle and the answers they got on the recording sheet. Great for accountability and quick check assessment of skills!***
Each puzzle comes with four options for printing:
Option #1: full color puzzle (laminate, cut, write, & wipe)
Option #2: black and white puzzle (print on bright paper, laminate, cut, write, & wipe)
Option #3: student template (pieces mixed up for student to solve, cut, and assemble into a notebook or on a piece of construction paper)
Option #4: EDITABLE puzzle pieces for you to customize to meet the needs of your classroom

This has helped so much as a early finisher and a center. Students love to figure out what the picture is going to be while completing the math facts.

This resource is fantastic and I love how it can be differentiated. The puzzle can be mixed for those who need the challenge and not mixed for those who need extra support!
