The Supply Run
Students lead an expedition with limited supplies, calculate competing needs, and decide how to allocate resources before committing to a plan.
A real Math decision, built for Grade 6.
The Supply Run is a 10-day grade 6 math simulation where students lead an expedition on limited supplies.
Students work from the evidence available at that moment, explain the decision they make, and revisit their reasoning only after you release additional information. The answer path never appears in advance.

Reasoning earns the grade.
Assessment rewards evidence use, explanation, revision, and reflection. A defensible decision can earn full credit even when later information complicates it; a lucky outcome cannot substitute for sound reasoning.

Everything you need to guide the experience.
- Day by Day Teacher Playbook. Clear preparation, pacing, release, collection, and next-day directions for each session.
- Teacher-confidential release materials. Later evidence, consequences, answers, and debrief guidance remain under teacher control.
- Student launch and decision files. Launch-safe materials introduce the role, evidence, constraints, and first decision without exposing what follows.
- Editable classroom tools. Word and Excel or Google Docs and Sheets versions support digital use and paper fallback.
- Reasoning-centered assessment. Students are graded on evidence, explanation, revision, and reflection, not on selecting a hidden preferred outcome.
- Classroom supports. Scaffolds, accessibility options, absence recovery, and practical facilitation guidance are included.
