Engaging with Sudoku activates cognitive processes involved in problem-solving. The structured format uses Bruner's CPA (Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract) approach, allowing children to manipulate numbers physically before visualizing them in the grid.
1. Draw a 6x6 grid on paper. 2. Fill in 10 random numbers (1 to 6) while ensuring no repeats in rows, columns, or boxes. 3. Share your grid with a family member. 4. Take turns solving each other's puzzles, filling in the missing numbers logically. 5. Discuss your strategies — how did you figure out which numbers to place? 6. Create a new grid with different placements and challenge each other!
