Math Challenges, Number Crunchers #3
Keep the Brain Active.
Short Description:
Please solve the math challenges either in your head or write them down and calculate as you go.
Either way, it will give you good brain exercise.
The first is an easier level with only addition and subtraction. The second is a more challenging level with added division and multiplication (disregard the order of operations for this activity).
Start from the left and work your way along, then write your answer in the box on the right.
Directions for Caregivers:
Can you do mental calculations?
If you want to make the math challenges easier, supply a pen and a blank sheet of paper so that you or the person you are with can write down and calculate step by step.
Or, you can use a calculator. That is good exercise for the brain too.
