About the Mini Mathematical Murder Mysteries (Ages 11-14)
Here are our top reasons to buy the Mini Mathematical Murder Mysteries (Ages 11-14):
- Mini murder mysteries built on algebra, geometry, statistics, ratio and proportion
- Matched to the National Curriculum for Years 7, 8 and 9, ages 11-14
- Every case sets out four suspects and questions that rule them out one by one
- Full answers for every mystery, so your child can mark their own solving
- A printed workbook by Jill Whieldon, published by Tarquin
Your Year 7, 8 or 9 child works out the maths to name the killer, and the topics are the ones school covers.
Your child meets algebra, geometry, statistics and ratio in lessons all year, and this printed workbook asks for the same maths with a culprit at the end. The practice stays close to school work. A confident Year 6 child who is already ahead will find the algebra and ratio questions a real stretch.
Each case names four suspects, and every answer your child works out either clears one or condemns one. In one mystery they check coin totals and restaurant bills. Another uses money and time problems to decode a message, and then your child writes out the accusation. Full answers are included.
A mystery moves between topics, so your child has to change method partway through and check each step. That is where careless slips tend to show up. Jill Whieldon wrote the puzzles so that the maths, and nothing else, points to the guilty name.
