Either:
-
Write these on the board as in the image below (you may want to add some of your own)
OR print the free download poster, laminate and hang somewhere in the classroom.
-
Keep clues and answers a secret (keep them to yourself and hidden from others).
ALL math questions must be completed (even if you can guess the rest of the missing letters in the clue)
Never give up until the case is solved (if it is getting tough, stop and think about what the hard part is, get help if needed, and try to get past the hurdle.)
Read the clues carefully (some clues are tricky, and if not thought about carefully, it can sometimes lead to incorrect eliminating.)
