Looking
for something math-y to do this week? I’ve
got a fun activity to share!
Call
me goofy, but don’t you just love those little plastic Easter eggs that are EVERYWHERE right now? They’re inexpensive, come
in all kinds of colors and designs, and are just plain fun—so I had to find
some ways to pair them with learning! I’ve
got a few things in the hopper (unfortunately down to the wire with Easter just
a week away), and am hoping to crank them out in the next day or two. I finally sat down today to finish at least
one. Here it is—the Easter Egg Math Challenge!
\
With
this math problem-solving EGGStravaganza, learners solve story problems, then check
inside a matching plastic egg to confirm their answers! Simply copy, cut, and tuck the answer slips
into 8 plastic numbered eggs—it’s ready to go!
It includes 8 higher-level math questions, and I’ve also included blank
question and answer templates so that students can write their own questions
too! 
I
use this as a math center, and put all the answer eggs in a cute little Easter
basket and the student recording sheets nearby.
My kiddos LOVE this activity, and the simple peeking into the eggs to
see if they’re right! It’s a great
review of math concepts such as elapsed time, area & perimeter, number
patterns, multi-step operations, and more!
A fun math center, partner activity, or whole group review. It’s math critical thinking combined with
Easter basket fun! Hop on over to TPT to
check out the preview!
