Monday Maths Mystery Puzzle

This term in our class we have completed a maths mystery puzzle activity each Monday morning allowing us to collaborate and use our mathematical thinking and skills.  We have had to use logical reasoning and mathematical understanding to tackle a range of puzzles. Our class is enjoying these puzzles as it is a fun way to work with others in our class.   

I enjoy being able to test my knowledge and thinking skills and being able to collaborate with others who may have different approaches to me. I believe that these tasks link to maths because we are developing our ability to analyse problems and work collaboratively with others.

I enjoy being able to use different strategies and be more open-minded while being challenged. You need to use all these different maths strategies to figure out the answer and it’s very similar to word problems

I enjoy the puzzles because they challenge me and get my brain working at the start of the week. It also helps with my problem-solving skills when finding different solutions to problems.

I enjoy the hard riddles and mysteries in them. It links to maths because you have to work out numbers and look at tactics.

I am enjoying working with others in our class that I might not usually work with.

I like that it links to maths because we stretch our thinking to become more open-minded in solving riddles in different ways. I also like solving and working out different patterns.
