Math Spies Episode 3 -- Around the World

I'm in the process of writing and posting a seven mission series in Math Spies.  Students use clues to find four numbers which when put into Google Maps show the coordinates of a place in the world.  Each place has its own code word and at the end of the seven missions, the student should have seven code words that make a sentence.

Watch out for red herrings!

      I hope you try Math Spies with your fifth graders. My fifth graders enjoy them.

  2. Mary, I'm not a teacher, (I was, a long time ago), but I'm always looking for fun learning opportunities with my kids (one is a rising 5th grader). We'll explore Math Spies this summer! And keep up the "favorite read aloud" series - I'm looking for ideas. Great blog!
