In reply to Ms. Dz. Glad you and your students were enjoying the puzzles before the world went insane!

I don't know you, Sarah, but the sarcasm here made me giggle: "Yes, I realize that I could have just written on the cubes with a marker. But […] I would rather painstakingly glue small squares of paper to each side of a cube."

Thanks for another great puzzle! I'd just started using your puzzles with my students this year when we were sent home. Next year, I guess!

In reply to Cupcakes and Pi. Personally, I would make each set their own color so that you can keep the sets together easily.

Hi Sarah!
Thank you so much for sharing this … I'm looking forward to using this with my classes.
One question … any reason why ONE cube has two number 3s?
Thanks in advance for your reply 🙂

Thank you so much for sharing! I absolutely love your blog and your willingness to always share! I'm so excited to make these (going shopping tomorrow!). You said you would use different colors for the squares. Would you do 6 different colors (so a "set" has 6 different colors) or would each set you make be a different color (if you made several sets for a class to use)? Just curious! Thanks again!
