Are you a 2nd or 3rd grade teacher looking for a FREE Halloween math activity to use this October? Try this Halloween math challenge!
This “Haunted Halloween Party” math activity is perfect for your advanced 2nd and 3rd graders. You can use this math printable for math centers, math homework, problem of the week, a whole class number talk, a small group math assignment, enrichment contracts, or as a Halloween center activity. It’s FUN for kids and NO PREP for you!
This Halloween math freebie includes a math challenge problem focused on place value and logical thinking. Students are given place value clues and are then asked to determine the only 3-digit number that meets the requirements of every clue. This is the room number of the “Haunted Halloween Party.”
Students love the fun Halloween theme, and you’ll love how engaged they are with place value concepts.
The math printables also include a lined page for students to write about how they solved the problem + an answer key so you don’t have to think too hard about it. Just print and go!
If you’re short on time, you can even project the math problem onto your screen or white board instead of using printed copies. Then have students work it out on white boards. Just click Ctrl+L to display the problem page and you’re all set.
A fun Halloween number talk is ready in seconds!
Hop over to the I Want to be a Super Teacher blog HERE for the freebie.
