{"product_id":"halloween-math-spiral-review-csi-mystery","title":"Halloween Math Spiral Review CSI Mystery | Grades 2–4 | The Costume Caper","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 3rd grade math spiral review brings Halloween math activities and no prep math worksheets together in one CSI Mystery Detective math case, The Costume Caper. Students review five third grade skills: multiplication and division facts, rounding to the nearest 10 and 100, adding and subtracting within 1000 with regrouping, equivalent and comparing fractions, and telling time and elapsed time. It fits October from the first fall math centers right through Halloween week, and doubles as a back to school math review for 4th grade. Print and go for math centers, early finishers, morning work, small groups and sub plans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHalloween week in third grade has a buzz about it, and this case puts that energy into real math practice. Every clue page reviews a different skill, so one packet shows you where your class stands before the fractions and time units get going. Students cross suspects off as they solve, which means they are checking their own work as they go, and the whole case marks itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Case: The Costume Caper\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Golden Pumpkin, a hundred-year-old trophy for the best costume in Maple Hollow, disappears from the judges' float halfway through the Halloween parade. Fifteen marchers in costume were close enough to take it, and the clues they left along the parade route point to just one of them.
