zenjenn Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Does anyone have any site or book recommendations for "challenge" math problems for elementary students? When I google I can find certain sites that have a few, but I just want a big go-to resource for extra challenging/brain teaser type problems. I like having a few ready on the white board for when my accelerated learner finishes her work early, and I'm having trouble remaining inspired.

JeanM Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Singapore's challenging word problem books are great! :iagree: You might also want to try "Primary Grade Challenge Math" or other books by Edward Zaccaro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Wife Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I don't know if this might be too difficult, but I've got my eye on this book: Math Olympiad Contest Problems for Elementary and Middle Schools Vol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spetzi Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 We love Zaccaro's books. This site is for MS, but some may be at your dc's level. virtualmathclub.wordpress.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
