How can I assess student work on a math puzzle?
Assessment for puzzles should focus on the student's process, not just the final answer. Observe their strategy: Are they using systematic trial-and-error, making logical deductions, or identifying patterns? Ask students to explain their thinking to gauge their reasoning skills.

How can I differentiate math puzzles for a mixed-ability class?
Puzzles are naturally differentiated by the strategies students use to solve them. For more targeted support, you can use Wayground's features to create alternate versions with larger fonts or a dyslexia-friendly font. For digital assignments, you can reduce the number of answer choices on logic puzzles for specific students.
