Mathematics Puzzles: General Ability
This maths teacher resource supports students to develop reasoning, problem solving, and mathematical understanding. Designed as a printable teacher resource, it encourages meaningful engagement with maths concepts through clear, intentional instruction.
Teachers often hit the profession with limited experience in catering to the needs of the gifted learner — no one is at fault, it’s the nature of chance and it’s left to who your mentor is, the students you’re exposed to and the professional learning that is [or isn’t] prioritised in a mainstream setting.
In honour and celebration of Gifted Awareness Week — this resource celebrates an enriched approach to mathematics, as well as mathematically able students. These puzzles promote divergent thinking and sit outside of your programmed content.
Each puzzle is designed to support an enriched approach to mathematics. Perfect for your able mathematicians and fast finisher students across all year groups.
