Episode Description: While erasing doodles for extra credit, Max and Molly stumble across a secret message from Aunt M hidden in the margin. It leads them to Burlington Bunker, a Cold War-era underground city in Corsham, England, where mysterious Morse code transmissions are being sent—possibly by the POGs or their underground allies, the Moles. With the help of a Problem Solving spy, Ames Blond, Max and Molly use pattern recognition, proportional reasoning, and division tricks to uncover a pattern in the coded transmissions. But just when they think the mission is over, they learn the transmissions are being sent... to Oshkosh.
Math Concepts: Division & Multiplication relationships; Trick for dividing by 5: Multiply by 2 and move the decimal left one place; Parts of a Division Problem: Dividend, Divisor, Quotient; Pattern Recognition; Basic Unit Conversions (minutes vs. seconds)
History/Geography Concepts: Applying math concepts to real-world spy scenarios;
Burlington Bunker: Cold War-era government facility in England. Morse Code: Historical communication method, including its use on the Titanic. Avogadro & Mole (Chemistry reference): Sneaky cross-curricular connection
