Parent & Teacher Resources

I was a math teacher for 32 years at both the middle and high school levels. My thousands of hours of classroom experience included Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Statistics. I also sponsored Math Clubs that were very successful at both the state and national levels.

My experience led me to the conclusion that the greatest predictor of a student’s performance in class was their knowledge of basic facts.  The students who were proficient with these skills had a better understanding of classes like Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry.  They were able to grasp the more complicated concepts, since they were not getting bogged down with the arithmetic.  

We are creating these puzzles to help students practice and learn in a fun, no-pressure environment.  Each month, we will put new puzzles on our website that teachers, parents, and students can use at no cost.  We have also published several books to provide students with more practice problems.  These puzzles will also help students with their spelling, and they will learn some interesting trivia along the way.

In order to solve these puzzles, first find the solution for each of the 26 math problems.  The answers you find will all correspond with a unique letter.  Now, wherever you see a particular number on the puzzle page, write the letter that matches up with that answer.  Once all of the letters have been placed, the puzzle will be solved.

Have fun!
