Critical Thinking Equation Brain Puzzles CCSS MP.3
Brain puzzles are one of my favorite ways to informally introduce mathematical reasoning sprinkled with a tiny hint of proofs. They get kids talking about the WHY of numbers and give them practice defending their ideas. If there’s a mistake, it’s a perfect space for conversation. I also love that one problem can result in multiple answers! They are a great way to meet the Standards for Mathematical Practice, particularly MP.3.
