Growth Mindset: Building Bridges and Islands (Hashiwokakero) Easier Version

This Growth Mindset activity: Building Bridges or simply Bridges is a Japanese logic game originally called “Hashiwokakero” These puzzles will hook both you and your students in and wanting to do more. On each visually stunning puzzle you are given a number of islands where you need to join these islands with bridges. These puzzles are designed to improve your students spatial awareness.

This version is slightly easier than my other version and is a great option of your students have never played these types of puzzles.

Reasons why solving Building Bridges Puzzles are good for your students

• It sharpens your critical thinking skills
• It improves our problem solving skills
• It helps us in multi-tasking thinking skills
• It helps stay mentally fit

All you need to do is decide if you want color or black and white as both are included. Personally I use color. Print them off and laminate the sheets and you are good to go.

Included is also a PowerPoint show to teach you and you students how to play.
