My students LOVED this activity, literally asking to do more! We did call it a "fence" to keep them safe instead of a trap though. :)

⭐ This resource was SO fun and SO well-made! A great activity leading up to the holidays, ESPECIALLY since my class has been working hard on area and perimeter. Thanks!

⭐ Extremely engaging. Really reinforced the concepts of area and perimeter.

Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 × 7.
Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division (e.g., knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers.
Solve two-step word problems using the four operations. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.
