PPT Presentation to display during lesson
7 puzzle station sheets in
Team sheets for upto 7 groups (in both colour and greyscale)
Teacher Instructions and Answers
Rules:
Students work in teams.
7 ‘stations’ around the room (either on tables, stuck to walls/doors etc).
Students are to complete all 7 puzzles - they are given the order of stations to visit on their team sheet (but as different puzzles take different amounts of time, they can always go to a station that is free)
Each puzzle gives an answer
Once students have completed all puzzles, they will have need to complete the calculations at the bottom of their team sheet to crack the 4-digit code
Extra info:
What you do with the 4-digit code is completely up to you! A lock box with a numbered padlock on works really well (this can be filled with sweets or other prizes), or you can ask them to give you the code and you can give them a prize.
