Welcome, young mathematicians! Today, we're embarking on an exciting journey that combines our love for numbers with a thrilling mystery. Are you ready to put on your detective hats?
Imagine walking into the classroom and finding an envelope on your desk. The envelope is sealed and has a curious message written on it:
"The numbers have vanished, and only you can find them! Solve the riddles, unlock the code, and unveil the secret of the Missing Numbers!"
What do you think this means? Let's investigate together!
Before we delve into the envelope, let’s warm up our minds with a fun riddle related to today’s lesson on algebra!
Riddle: I am a number. If you multiply me by 2 and then add 6, you get 18. What number am I?
(Remember, we will discuss how to set up equations to find answers like this one shortly!)
Split into small groups and discuss your thoughts on the riddle. How did you approach it? Did anyone come up with the same answer?
Remember to note down your findings – this is part of our detective work!
Now, let’s unfold the mystery. Inside the envelope is a series of clues that represent problems or equations related to today’s lesson. Each correct answer will lead us closer to revealing the final secret of the Missing Numbers!
Prepare yourselves! We’re about to unleash the power of mathematics in our quest for knowledge!
Let’s get solving!
