Find out at the end which one of my Math Quests is going FREE FOR A WEEK!
(May 7th, 2018 – May 13th, 2018)
What is a Math Quest?
It begins with a story, both video hook and written versions of the story included in all quest packets. Check out a video hook intro below for ‘Raiders of the Lost Egg.‘ The Video Hook presents the start of the story, designed to set the stage to engage your students. When the video hook ends, is when students must continue the story on the paper part of the activity beginning at ‘Chapter 1.’

The rest of the story is a paper and pencil activity that continues in ‘chapters.’ Each chapter reveals the next part of the story, posing a math task to complete. Once the math task is complete, students may progress to the next chapter. See a sample page below from ‘Redbeard’s Rebellion’ – Chapter 2 – ‘Medium’ Level Version.
PLEASE NOTE:
Some puzzles require a final code or ‘special number’ that will give you a quick indication if the calculations are correct.
Other pages may require a ‘visual’ check, such as did they color the right path on the maze, or climb the correct rocks to reach the top. I’ve included another sample chapter page in the image below.
(Please note that there are answer pages included with all quest packets.)
The final chapter of each Math Quest will present some choices for actions to take in the story. Students make their choice and then complete the math in that section, carrying out instructions to receive a ‘special number.’ If they do the math correctly, the special number will match up to their ending of the story on the final page. Four alternate endings to receive! See sample below:
Final Chapter from ‘The Heartless Queen’ HARD LEVEL
‘NUMBER TOTAL’ in their box chosen is a special number that they will need to use on the next page to discover their story ending. If they cannot find their special number, then they know they’ve made an error and must go over their calculations again.
You would need to keep the story ending page hidden until a student has their special number ready.
Suggestion: You could hide the endings page in an envelope and ask students only to go and check once they have a special number ready.
‘The Terrible Turkey Take Over.’
If students want to go back to achieve a different ending, you could allow that as long as they complete the math in the box for it.
‘School Jungle Jam.’
great to use for:
Set one chapter at a time as a math warm-up activity
Engaging work around holiday seasons – Most of these quests have a ‘holiday’ theme if you wish to incorporate into a certain day. However, they are designed to be able to use any time of the year in case you miss the chance around a certain period.
Early finishers – Set this up as a booklet for your fast finishers to work on whenever there’s time to spare.
Extra math practice with a fun twist.
Homework/assignment
End of the Year work that is fun but still educational
You could staple all of the chapters together and give to students all at once to work on, OR only give out one chapter at a time to complete. I recommend that students must show a completed chapter before receiving the next.
Set the (optional) video hook to the board ready for viewing when introducing the task.
Hide the ‘endings’ page in an envelope or somewhere special (optional).
Have your answer key ready for easy checking.
You can differentiate this activity in your class by giving out different levels of the same quest.
The chapters are interchangeable, which means you can adjust the difficulty for certain chapters.
See example below from ‘Reindeer Roundup – Chapter 1.’
If you own the differentiated bundle of a math quest, you will have all the levels available for that quest ready to pick and swap as you wish. Otherwise, individual levels are available for separate purchase.
