How to use it

Read every clue or rule before filling anything in. Use a pencil so changes are easy to make. It is pitched at the expected level for Grade 8, for practice after the skill has been taught.

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

Tip for grown-ups: Start with the row, column or box that has the most numbers already filled in.

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