Puzzle Workbooks for Kids - Updated Each Month!

This page contains a drawing shapes challenge, which is all about improving spatial skills. Spatial skills are a key component of critical thinking skills, but one that can be the hardest to teach. Rest assured, students' spatial skills will get a workout with these puzzles! Students are given a dot grid and directions to draw shapes within that grid. The directions are specific as to which shapes to draw, how many to draw, and placement of vertices. Several different options are available.
