Lunar New Year Math Activities Number Puzzles

Add some Chinese New Year fun into your classroom with these number puzzles. Your students will love looking at different images and learning about Chinese New Year, while also working on their counting and number skills.

The puzzles come in 8 different difficulty levels;

• Level 1 – 0-3
• Level 2 – 0-4
• Level 3 – 0-5
• Level 4 – 0-6
• Level 5 – 0-7
• Level 6 – 0-8
• Level 7 – 0-9
• Level 8 – 0-10

There are a range of ways that these can be used in your classroom such as;

• Print out the puzzles, cut them up and laminate them. Use them as a center activity where your students have to look at the numbers on the bottom of each puzzle piece, put them into numerical order to make the puzzle.
• Print out two copies of each puzzle (one copy can be b/w), laminate one as a full puzzle (I recommend the b/w one) and then cut out the puzzle pieces on the other puzzle. Laminate the puzzle pieces. Have your students match the individual pieces onto the completed puzzle. This provides a lower ability option for students struggling.

Instructions are also included on first pages of each PDF document. I would highly recommend laminating each of the individual task cards so that they will be stronger, therefore longer lasting.
