Pathfinder
Collect the next puzzle and bring it back to the team.
Fraction Land
Choose a challenge. Explain a strategy. Keep every teammate thinking.
Classroom team activityThree roles. Shared thinking.
Work in teams of three with a whiteboard and marker. Everyone contributes to the reasoning; the scribe records the group’s solution. Follow your teacher’s directions for the board, cards and current classroom rewards.
Scribe
Record the reasoning clearly on the whiteboard. This is the only writer for the round.
Quizmaster
Present the team’s solution to the teacher and explain why it works.
Rotate each round: Pathfinder → Scribe → Quizmaster → Pathfinder. Collect a puzzle, solve it together, explain it to the teacher, then move according to the card type.
Choose your risk—and justify your reasoning.
- Momentum
- A standard problem: a correct response advances one space; an incorrect response has no movement penalty.
- Leap of Fate
- A challenge: a correct response advances two spaces; an incorrect response moves back one space.
- Fortune Flip
- A harder challenge: a correct response allows a place swap; an incorrect response returns the team to the start.
