A puzzle celebration can offer several ways into the challenge

Put route, matching and logic options where participants can preview them. Explain available support and allow changing activities, keeping the celebration focused on exploration rather than a leaderboard of fast completions.

To hand: Selected maze, logic and matching sheets.

Preview each option. Explain supports. Invite choice and return.

Give each station a clear entry point

Explain each station's task and available support clearly. A celebration can highlight different kinds of thinking without introducing a speed competition.

A learner can move from a maze to a cooperative logic task.

Avoid speed leaderboards.

Are different entry points available? Provide large-print options.
