US Grade 4 - 5
This interactive weekly club is targeted for advanced third, fourth, and fifth grade students who need enrichment in the area of math. During each session, learners will combine their love of numbers with the intrigue of sniffing out clues and solving mysteries. As your young detective solves a series of math riddles, puzzles, and brainteasers, he or she will collect clues that can be used to eliminate suspects, narrow down the list of potential crime scenes, solve the mystery and save the day! Each "detective" will receive a list of potential suspects, crime scenes, and methods, and each new puzzle will bring them one step closer to discovering "Whodunnit!" But beware! One wrong answer could lead the detective down a rabbit trail and away from the truth!
