Halloween Math

As we approach Halloween here are some "Scary" problems your students might find interesting:

Elementary:  

3 different monsters were out for halloween.  Together they had 12 feet.  If each monster has a different number of feet, how many feet does each monster have?

Extensions:

  • What could be the smallest total number of feet?
  • If each monster has 2 more eyes than feet, what would be the total number of eyes?  Is there a total number of eyes that you cannot make?

Middle School:  

Zorbit's released some amazing pattern chats around Halloween.  Here are some of them: (For more halloween activities check out Zorbit's activities here)



Extension:

  • Could you rearrange the pictures above to make it easier to see the pattern?  
  • Can you make a pattern that doesn't increase at a constant rate?  How would you describe your pattern?

High school:

World War Z and Mathematics
