How to use the math maze
- Easy (6×6, 3 ops, no ×): first graders just getting comfortable with adding and subtracting within 30.
- Medium (8×8, 4 ops, with ×): grades 2–3, mixed operations including small multiplication facts.
- Hard (10×10, 5 ops): grade 4 and up, or a strong third-grader who likes a puzzle.
- Tip: the blue circles are on the real path; the yellow ones are decoys on dead ends — tracing matters!
Tips for grown-ups
- Click New math maze for a fresh puzzle — each seed gives a different maze and operation sequence.
- Toggle Show solution path before printing if you want a teacher answer key.
- Print on plain paper. A pencil works best so kids can erase if they take a wrong turn.
