Have you tried out the number cross puzzles with your students yet? Cross out numbers in the grid until each row and column sums to the numbers written outside the grid.

I just added a brand new 9x9 sized number cross puzzle to my website.

I just added a new set of tangram number puzzles for 0-9 on my website. These can be used with plastic tangram pieces or with printed and laminated pieces (template provided!)

Could make a fun countdown activity to something!

Added a new set of digit addition puzzles to the blog today. I'm probably going to save these 100 Square Puzzles to use in second semester when we reach the 100th Day of School!

The town I teach in had its Fall Festival this weekend, so I thought a pretzel nonogram puzzle was fitting for today.

One of the logic puzzles my students are tackling this week as an early finisher activity are these 1-16 hidoku puzzles. Fill in the missing numbers so that each number touches the next consecutive number either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

I made this classifying perfect squares mystery picture worksheet awhile back, but I never got around to sharing it. Decided I should get it up before Perfect Square Day next week (9/16/25)!

I created this worksheet to give my AP Precalc students some practice with our first graphing calculator skill of the year. The hardest part of the assignment for many of them today was unscrambling the letters to spell a fruit!

Soaking up the last two weeks of summer. It was cooler today, so we went to the park for tennis, pickleball, and playground time.
