Download 12 puzzles you can use to challenge your gifted students and to build their collaboration skills while they’re solving. These complex puzzles are deliberately not set within a specific context, so you can incorporate them into your lessons and/or build a story around them. Download includes three files: the puzzles themselves, hints for each puzzle, and solutions for each puzzle. Happy solving!

Join us for a fun, interactive session with engaging, challenging puzzles you can use right away! Try your hand at solving complex puzzles (don’t worry, we’ll help!), and learn proven strategies for helping your gifted kids develop more comfort with productive struggle.  Plus, learn why puzzles are unique and effective at building academic and social/emotional skills for gifted students.
