Manipulating Mathematics
Here’s a few game boards for you to make up at home and solve.
Make some counters with numbers on them, bottle tops are good, and place them on the number. Using the pathways (lines), move one counter at a time to any empty position.
Find the smallest number of moves available to reverse the order of the numbers. That is, if the numbers go around the shape in a ‘clockwise’ direction try to make them go anti-clockwise, if they go up, can you make them go down…
Can you make a pathway puzzle for me to try to solve?
Enjoy,
