Description and Features
This fun, mind-building 48-page book is made up of three types of puzzles that involve addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication as well as fractions and decimals. As students have fun solving these puzzles, they are sharpening their critical thinking, computational, and algebraic reasoning skills.
1. | Balance Math Puzzles require students to analyze balances to deduce the missing value. |
2. | Inside-Out Math Puzzles require students to reverse their thinking, using the inverse relationships between addition and subtraction and multiplication and division to solve the puzzle. |
3. | Tic Tac Math Puzzles require students to figure out the correct order to complete all rows, columns, and diagonals. |
This book's spiraling difficulty is designed to scaffold a student's conceptual understanding of the targeted operations from beginning to advanced achievement. Teaching suggestions and detailed solutions are included.

I was struggling with teaching algebra. The Balance Math™ books broke it down into bite size pieces. They finally got it! I like the color and space in the elementary books. I will definitely be buying more.

I teach GT at the elementary level and am constantly looking for ways to challenge the kids while holding their interest. They LOVE this and beg me to do more. They want it for homework! The problems in the book get progressivly more difficult, but there are clues in the back for those who get stumpted...I highly recomend this book to any math teacher or parent of a kid who fears algebra.

I use the three Balance Math™ and More! books in my sixth grade classroom. They are a great way to start kids thinking Algebraically. Super critical thinking practice also. Love them!

My son found the book very challenging and fun to work with. It forces him to think logically and introduces algebra very well.

Teaching your child how to think algebraically without introducing variables yet. Really gets the mind working in ways that are different than they do in a regular classroom.
