  1. How creative! Love the idea of making wanted posters to teach a skill that is so hard for some students to understand! Thanks for sharing!!

  2. I love this activity and know my gifted students would too! Could you give me more examples of the posters you made? (format, wording etc.) I would really appreciate it! Love ALL of your ideas. TIA

    1. Thank you, Anissa! I’m so glad you found this. I have had so much fun with my kids doing this! The last time I did it with a group of gifted 5th graders. Wow! They blew my socks off. One of them got so into it that he went home and Googled number properties. He learned about Happy Numbers and asked me if he could teach the class about them. So we all found Happy Numbers that we could do Wanted Posters for. Super fun.
      Okay – for examples, could you please email me at Leah@summathfun? Unfortunately, I don’t have photos – I get so involved with the kids that I forget to take them. But, I can send you some in words.
      I’m so glad you’re going to do this with your kids. I know they and you will love it. It works great as an authentic assessment, too.
