Tips for parents and teachers

  1. Puzzles make great early-finisher or calm-down activities – keep a few printed copies in a folder.
  2. Solve the first part together while thinking aloud about your strategy, then hand over the pencil.
  3. Combine this sheet with past exam questions on the same topic for mixed, exam-style practice.
