Introducing mathematical Sudokus

Image

We are introducing a variation of the well-known Sudoku, by including mathematical constraints which challenge students to apply their knowledge of the four operations. For each grid size, there are four different puzzles, at each of three levels of difficulty, so plenty for your students to get stuck into!

To introduce the Mathdokus, and to give a flavour of the kind of strategies that may be useful, you may like to watch this video.

The last date for submitting solutions to the live problems is Monday 31 October.

You can watch a recording of the webinar in which we discussed the mathematical thinking that can be prompted by these activities.
