I will pick 3 different digits, and use them once each to make a time. Then, I’m going to use the same 3 digits to make a different time. I will then work out how many minutes between those times.

The goal is to find the shortest elapsed time using these rules.

Pick a 3 digit number.
Divide the number by 6. Write down the remainder.
Divide the number by 7. Write down the remainder.
Divide the number by 8. Write down the remainder.
Add the three remainders together.
What starting number should you pick to get the greatest possible sum?

As a follow up to this Dot Puzzles. I was thinking about how we can use this same set up with fractions in 3rd Grade.
Here's a very rough mock up of a puzzle format:

Choose any five consecutive positive whole numbers, and multiply them together. Did you get a multiple of 120? Will you always get a multiple of 120?

Alright elementary math people:
When and how do you introduce order of operations?
Common Core seems to say third grade ... or do they? It's all sorts of confusing.

I’ve had a lot of conversations recently about how to keep geometry interesting in 3rd grade. I’m super excited for students to try these Right Angle Mazes.
Trace a path from the start to finish using only right angle turns.
