Why did you choose this?
I haven't introduced Logic to our curriculum yet, but we love mysteries and solving puzzles!
A fun way to get my 9th grader using critical thinking skills.
My daughter loves puzzles and figuring things out like escape rooms and such. I thought this would be a fun way to practice and grow her logic skills.
I run a STEM club for homeschoolers and I wanted a group project that was engaging and fun. I am hoping these mysteries will be what I am looking for.
