Is there a FREE PUZZLER Sampler package that gives me an idea what they look like?Yes. Check our website for that free download in pdf format. There are 10 samples there showing different formats we use; and each subject area is different to give you a better idea about our unique PUZZLERS.
-
I see that the PUZZLERS are called Volume 1. Are there more PUZZLERS coming?Yes. Other Volumes are currently written or being written so you can expect Volume 2, Volume 3, and so on over time.
-
Why are there only 10 subject areas in your Educational Resource Packages?The authors, Ron and Elaine, taught high school in two main subject areas, Business Studies and English, and so the PUZZLERS draw on their 30-year classroom experiences.
-
Are there any age-specific PUZZLERS?While PUZZLERS are designed primarily for high school students, they can be adapted for various age groups. Teachers should review the puzzles and choose those that are most appropriate for their students' age, interests, and abilities.
-
Are there any crossword puzzles included in the package?Yes and No. Yes, in the form of PUZZLERS called Criss Cross, a variation of crossword puzzles. No in the sense that Classroom PUZZLERS wanted to offer teachers PUZZLERS that (a) took a bit less time to complete, (b) were more fun to solve and (c) were a unique challenge for students.
-
How many different formats are there?We have not counted lately because we keep coming up with new ideas. We think there are over 50 different types of PUZZLERS in our collection for teachers to select from.

Are there PUZZLERS designed for students who excel in specific subject areas?Our PUZZLERS collection covers a variety of subject areas, and we continuously work to expand our offerings.

We encourage teachers to explore our collection and select PUZZLERS that best meet the needs and interests of their students, whether they excel in a particular subject or not.
-
How hard are the PUZZLERS?Puzzlers vary in degree of difficulty from relatively easy to challenging. Teachers will need to look over the PUZZLERS and assess which ones are best to use, or how to use them all to encourage students to learn in a fun way.
-
How do I choose the appropriate difficulty level for my students?To choose the appropriate difficulty level, consider your students' prior knowledge, abilities, and learning preferences. Start with puzzles that are relatively easy and gradually increase the difficulty as students become more comfortable and confident with the PUZZLERS. Be prepared to offer support and guidance as needed, and be flexible in adjusting the difficulty level based on student performance and feedback.
