This is a really fun problem solving lesson. You’ll need a bag of match sticks so that each child can participate.
We’ve all been challenged by someone who laid some matchsticks down and told us we could only move a certain amount to achieve a goal. Well, this PowerPoint contains 16 of these puzzles and their solutions!
Each slide shows a number of matchsticks laid out in some form of shape. You the teacher will tell each child to copy that shape. After this the slide will display the objective of the puzzle. After your class has had a go you can then click to reveal the answer.
A fantastic lesson on problem solving. Perfect for the run up to Christmas, easter or Halloween holidays!
