I’m so excited about our newest worksheet title!! Today Scott added CrossNumber Puzzles in the Miscellaneous category at the bottom of the subscribers area home page. Think crossword puzzles, except that math problems must be solved to get the answer needed in the puzzle. It’s much more fun to solve a puzzle then to just do a ‘regular’ worksheet!

You can choose between three sizes of puzzles: 7 x 7, 8 x 8 and 10 x 10.

For the types of problems, you can pick any combination of the following:

• Addition a + b
• Subtraction a - b
• Multiplication a x b
• Mixed Problems a x b + c
• Order of Operations a + b x c
• Associative Property (a + b) x c

This morning my daughter grabbed a crossnumber puzzle from her dad’s “testing” stack and worked the whole puzzle just for fun.

I hope the students in your life think they’re fun, too.
