~계절-- 고급 디비전 디지털 미스터리 수학: 좀비 엘프 사건

Oh no!! The elves in the North Pole have caught the Zombie Virus, which is transferred by the snow from the reindeer! The Shaman has been drawing up a list of the possible cures for the virus, but he needs our Math Detectives help to choose the correct cure!! In this super fun mystery, students will solve the clues and eliminate cures on the possible cure list until only one remains. This fun detective story has students read simple words and phrases to match information given with the cures on the list, so we can know which one will work and cure all of the elves!

Students will practice dividing multiples of ten by single-digit numbers (no remainders), dividing double-digit by single-digit numbers (with remainders), dividing triple-digit by single-digit numbers (no remainders), dividing double/triple-digit numbers by single-digit numbers with remainders, and dividing triple-digit by double-digit numbers (no remainders) as they work through all of the clues for the case. As students answer the questions for the clues, they will eliminate cures that do not match the clues until all five have been completed. **I have adjusted this class so that there is nothing to print off. All clues and the elimination of cures will be done on a shared screen. Students should bring paper and pencil or a whiteboard and marker to work out the math problems.

At the beginning of class, we will have introductions and answer some fun Christmas related questions before getting started with the mystery. Then, students will watch a short intro video of what is going on in the North Pole. For each clue, I will read the directions, project the math problems onto the classroom screen, and let our Math Detectives get to work! Please be sure that your learner brings some scratch paper and a pencil or a dry erase board and marker to work out their problems. When they answer the problems correctly, letters will be unlocked on the screen to present a clue. As they find the clues, students will use the information and deductive reasoning to help narrow down the possible cure list and eliminate cures that will be seen on the screen. At the end of class, when they find the correct cure, there will be one more bonus round of math work (mental division questions) that must be completed to make sure the chaos stops for good! 

After class, I will send an award to each student for solving the case and to celebrate what great Math Detectives they were! Now, let's have some FUN learning math!! I look forward to seeing your learners in the classroom!!
