My Project

I love that my students are very curious and are learning to become young problem solvers. Puzzles can be used as great resources to help encourage problem-solving skills.

Problem-solving skills and developing greater persistence and engagement can be fostered by using puzzles.

Puzzle completion allows students to experience and physically see the results of their persistence, engagement, and problem-solving skills. Various styles and difficulties of the puzzles are useful in that they help to reach my students at all levels. I also love that when kids are working on puzzles together, it provides time for them to develop communication and language acquisition skills.
