A Bronze/Silver/Gold differentiated resource where pupils are given a list of decimals and a square grid. Pupils have to put the decimals into the grid so that each row and column is in ascending order.
In Bronze, the integer part of each decimal is the same. In Silver, the integer parts are different. In Gold, negatives are introduced. The grids get progressively larger as you move from Bronze to Gold as well.
Each puzzle has multiple solutions, but I’ve provided one possible solution to each.
Update 16/9/22: Changed the design of the tasks, but the content is the same.

I loved this, mostly because it encouraged problem solving in my weaker group. In the end I copied out each grid twice on one sheet. They then used the left side to try, think, cross out & improve, then the right side to give their final answer. It also enabled me to keep the faster ones engaged while I spent time with those for whom place value had always been an issue. I liked it so much I've forwarded it around my department. Thank you!
Absolute brilliant resource
