About this worksheet
Eight Thanksgiving number riddles for 2nd grade about turkey feathers, pies, guests and cranberries: two-digit numbers, digit sums, tens and ones, even and odd. Every riddle has exactly one answer. Answer key on page 2. Second graders usually finish it in 10 to 15 minutes, reading the text twice before the questions.
Tips for using it
- Read the riddle twice: the first time for fun, the second time to look for the trick word.
- Ask "what else could that word mean?" when a riddle seems impossible.
- Let your child be the riddle master and read riddles to you; reading aloud to an audience builds fluency.
