Strong math students think creatively to solve math problems. The resources below will challenge your child to think about math in new and different ways in order to help them grow their math abilities. Check back often because more puzzles and challenges will be added. Please email me if you have a great challenge you would love to have included in this list.
This site includes several math logic puzzles to help students think outside of the box to solve math challenges.
Can you solve these puzzles by determing the value of each object, so they balance equally? Try your luck in the SolveMe puzzle section with 3 different levels of challenges. This is a great way for students to see that both sides of an equation should be equal even if they are made up differently.
A great class pattern challenge is Leaping Numbers by Steve Wyborney. Season 3 was just released on February 2, 2026, but your class can also begin with previous seasons for multiple challenges. Who can solve the mystery number and when will they figure it out?
