Easter and Math do not generally
go together; true that. But then, riddles can go along with pretty much any
subject, Easter being no exception. Here’s how you can design simple,
Easter-themed Math riddles for your kids.
Have an incomplete riddle as the
question that needs to be solved in the beginning. Here are some examples:
- A rabbit with fleas is called ____. (Answer: Bugs Bunny)
- How do Easter bunnies stay healthy? (Answer: Eggsercise)
- How did the soggy Easter bunny dry himself? (Answer: Hare Dryer)
Now divide the page into two
parts. The left half should contain math problems; simple addition and
subtraction for younger kids, the more complicated multiplication and division
for older kids. Just the signs (+, -, x, /) need to be missing, shown as an
empty block. The right half will have four columns, each headed by these signs
and corresponding alphabets under each. The correct sign for each equation
should have the corresponding alphabet under it for each problem, so as to make
up the word in a correct sequence once all the problems are solved. The
children are required to figure out the correct signs in each case and circle
the letter under the correct sign. Once all the problems are correctly solved,
simply list out the alphabets in their correct order at the bottom of the
worksheet and you have the answer to your riddle!
