Back to School Math Logic Puzzles and Brain Teasers for Critical Thinking
I created these logic and brain games as a fun activity to give to your students at the start of the year (or anytime for enrichment.) The games are back-to-school-themed and ask your students to solve real-world, first-week teacher problems. Missing bus assignments, mixed-up seating charts, spilled bag lunches, and disorganized student lines are just some of the back-to-school problems they will solve.
