Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Magic squares can be a fun way to teach math facts. Here is a website with 294 solutions to 4x4 magic squares. You can use their solutions to make your own worksheet, putting in as many numbers as you like and let the kids solve for the rest.

That being said, Singapore Math 2B Home instructor Guide provides an unsolvable magic square on p. 32. I know because I spent too much time trying to work it out myself before finding the website above. If you have Singapore's guide, to make the magic square correct, replace 2 with 8, and 10 with 16.
