How to use it

Show where the maze starts and ends before your child picks up a pencil. Encourage looking ahead at each turn instead of rubbing out dead ends. It is one of the harder sheets for Grade 8, best once the basics of the skill are secure.

An answer key comes with it as a separate page that grown-ups download after signing in.

Tip for grown-ups: Trace the route with a finger first, then with a pencil, so dead ends are spotted early.

Done on paper? A grown-up can record it on the child's page in PlayOwl; downloading alone doesn't count as finished.
