Happy No-Shave November!
Are you ready to celebrate in your math classroom?
Now that November has arrived, it’s officially the start of Movember, also known as No-Shave November, a month-long event where participants forgo grooming and shaving in an effort to raise cancer awareness.
You can participate by growing out a wild beard, by donating money to no-shave.org, where all proceeds go to cancer-prevention causes, and by raising awareness in your school.
So, even if you and your students can't cultivate a sweet handlebar mustache, you can still celebrate Movember in your classroom with a fun No-Shave November-themed math puzzle!
It makes for a great warm-up, transition, or exit ticket activity and can be shared with students in grades 3 and up!
Answer Key: Beret=10, Man Bun=4, Mowhawk=7, Headphones=7
