Description

This 2nd Grade Back to School Math Packet contains TEN fun Mini-Math Mysteries in printable and digital formats! This packet is ideal for 2nd Grade or any class working with the math skills and content listed below. This particular set of math skills is targeted for use at the beginning of the school year.

This activity is also distance learning-friendly with a digital option of the worksheets on Google Slides and Easel.

What are Mini-Math Mysteries?

Mini-Math Mysteries are a fun 'game-like' one-page activity to practice math skills. They are a condensed version of a mystery and follow a simple elimination structure where students will use their answers to eliminate possibilities. The mystery story is short (a couple of sentences to a paragraph), and unlike my regular mysteries, there are no clue messages or video hooks for these. I've designed these for educators who want something quick and short to assign to students while still keeping it fun!
