This series of problems is based on the characters and
themes in “Black Dog,” by Pamela Allen. The picture book is not essential to
the teaching. However, it is used as an engagement tool that gives context for
the following story-based problems and mastering number, pattern, and algebraic
reasoning.

The objective of this lesson is to use combinations to solve KenKen puzzles. An early solution strategy is for students to guess and check and use logic-based elimination. This lesson builds on those strategies by having students systematically list all possible combinations within each cage, the darkly outlined sections of the puzzle.

This lesson is based on the MTLT article, “Supporting LGBTQ+ Students in K-12 Mathematics” by Brandie E. Waid. In this lesson, students identify lines of symmetry for various symbols, create line-symmetrical figures and examples and non examples of images that have lines of symmetry, and analyze and discuss similarities and differences between their identify and that of their classmates.
