Math Riddles for Upper Elementary... A Freebie!

Hello, Teaching Friends!


Do you like using riddles with your class? Good, because I'm becoming a bit obsessed with making riddle resources.

I've made autumn riddles, winter riddles, alphabet riddles, Thanksgiving riddles, and number riddles.

So now I've decided to make... uh, riddles again.

This time I'm venturing into some new territory, the upper elementary grades. 120 Riddles for the 120 Chart is my most popular resource, so I thought I'd make a version for fourth and fifth grade.

This set includes are 120 riddle cards, one for each number from 1 through 120. For each number, there are 2 to 3 clues, each addressing a different standard. CCCS topics addressed include multiplication, division, remainders, prime numbers, factors, multiples, place value, geometric shapes, area, perimeter, and more.


Click here to see it at my TPT store.


Have a closer look...





Here's a free sample from the pack. If you're reading this blog, you're most likely a primary grade teacher. Please feel free to send the link to this post to a friend who's teaching fourth or fifth grade! Thanks!!

Happy Teaching!

    I love riddles also. I was so happy when the Common Core brought Speaking and Listening to the forefront again. Thanks for joining the linky. Giving this activity a shout out on facebook!
    All the best,

    I so agree, Sarah! Speaking and listening are the foundation for reading and writing, and we need to get that base set even before picking up books and pencils ... and continue to develop it even beyond! That's one reason why it saddens me to have heard several intermediate grade teachers say that curricular demands (read, "tests") have squeezed their time so much that they have no time to read aloud to their classes.

    Thanks so much for the FB shout out! :)
