Description
Looking for a no prep Halloween activity for your middle school math class to do this October? This set of 3 holiday-themed picture equation puzzles and accompanying riddle worksheet is sure to be a hit with your students!
This Halloween math activity is meant to be a fun challenge for students to complete! It features 3 picture logic puzzles which each require students to use 3 picture equations to find the values of each of the pictures. The puzzles can be solved using systems of 3 equations (for older students) or guess and check and logic and deductive reasoning (for younger students). Once students solve the three puzzles, there are 7 order of operations problems (no exponents) for students to complete using the values they found in the puzzles. The 7 order of operations problems will lead them to the answer of a Halloween riddle.
The 3 puzzles can be given to students in worksheet form or task card form, as two printing versions are included in the download. This makes a fun whole class Halloween activity or a great way to challenge early finishers!
This activity is a great critical thinking and reasoning exercise for students and a good way to keep students engaged, while still working, around Halloween, as it incorporates the fun of the holiday into math class at a time when it is very hard for students to focus.
