Red Block Returns 3 - Skill Building Game
Students guide a rectangular block across a grid, flipping it end-over-end to reach a designated target. The challenge lies in navigating tight spaces and avoiding pitfalls.
- Grade Levels: grades 3+
- Skills Developed: logical thinking, spatial reasoning, and problem solving
- Standards Addressed:
Common Core Mathematical Practices - make sense of problems and persevere in solving them, look for and make use of structure by recognizing how the block’s orientation changes
- Classroom Use:
STEM Integration - introduce concepts such as orientation, movement, and space, and discuss the block’s movement in a confined area
Reflection Activity - students reflect on the strategies they used to solve the puzzles and how they adapted their approach when faced with more complex levels
