Back to School Math Maze for 5th Grade

This 5th grade math maze is an engaging back to school review of 4th grade math concepts. Students start at the "Ready, Set, Go!" box and solve math problems to guide them through the maze to the end. With 4 unique mazes to choose from, this resource can be used for whole group, small group, station work or as a homework assignment. As students wind their way through, they will practice skills like multi-digit addition and subtraction, factors, fractions, geometry, telling time, calculating change, and more. Answer keys are provided for easy self or peer checking. This math maze delivers a fun way to review essential skills at the start of 5th grade.
