EDITABLE in Google Sheets/ **Excel:

Your kids will love this Treasure Hunt.

In the spirit of mathematical adventure, you will give your class the digital mission of finding the treasure.

The correct answer will lead them to the next problem to solve.

When they find the correct answer, the next task will show up and they will discover another fragment of the path leading to the treasure. This continues until they find the treasure.

This is a self-checking activity. If students solve a problem incorrectly, the answer and the black pirate flag will turn red, and no other task will show up.

There are 15tasks.
