Welcome everyone to our "Mystery of the Mind Maze!" Introduce yourself and get students excited about today’s adventure. Explain that they’ll solve puzzles together to escape the maze.

Read each objective aloud. Emphasize that we’ll practice critical thinking, collaboration, and celebrate mistakes as learning opportunities.

Set the scene: an ancient maze filled with puzzles. Encourage imagination. Explain that solving each puzzle moves them closer to the exit.

Display the Puzzle Pack image or project this slide. Give students a moment to observe before revealing answer choices. Encourage them to talk through strategies.

Explain how rotations work: groups of 3–4, 6 minutes per station, record ideas. Show them where chart paper and markers are.

Invite each group to share. Write key strategies and obstacles on the board. Praise creative solutions and persistence.

Refer to Growth Mindset Posters. Model reframing an “I can’t do it… yet” statement. Walk around and support students as they write.

Distribute exit tickets. Allow 3–4 minutes for completion. Collect them as students leave to assess understanding.
