Then choose a final destination square and draw a main path, or solution route, from this square to the entry point in the\u00a0\u00a0maze. For example, when creating your own Jumping Maze you would need to work backwards from the centre square like this:<\/p>\n<p>The solution route created is 1, 1, 3, 3, 2, 2, X<\/p>\n<p>To complete this maze simply put other numbers into the blank squares on the grid. The level of complexity of the final maze depends on the position of the numbers on the grid.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the mazes that your students create will have a number of different solution routes to the final destination square. To create a unique solution path (only one way to the final destination square), none of the other numbers placed on the grid should allow you to \u0093jump\u0094 onto the solution route. This offers a difficult yet very motivational challenge to students.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure when creating a maze that the path is not too short or your maze will be solved very quickly. Alternatively don\u0092t make the path too long, as you won\u0092t be able to have many choices or dead-ends, and then the maze becomes less of a challenge. Think carefully about the design and the way the maze looks; this will be important when it comes to getting others interested in playing your maze.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some logic mazes you can show students before they start to design their own mazes. To motivate students it is a good idea to\u00a0<strong>chalk mazes on the playground<\/strong>\u00a0or to\u00a0<strong>mark them out with tape<\/strong>\u00a0in the school hall.<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"fd5cc72bef1a1034a\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-1407-1\" data-target=\"#fd5cc72bef1a1034a\" href=\"#fd5cc72bef1a1034a\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">More mazes<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"fd5cc72bef1a1034a\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.logicmazes.com\/easy\/maze1.html\">No Left Turn Mazes<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.logicmazes.com\/eyeball.html\">Eyeball Shape Mazes<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.logicmazes.com\/alice.html\">Alice and Arrow Mazes<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.logicmazes.com\/n1mz.html\">Number Mazes<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.logicmazes.com\/rb\/column.html\">Rolling Block Mazes<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/gwydir.demon.co.uk\/jo\/maze\/design\/index.htm\">More ideas on designing a maze<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-2 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1407","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Maths Maze &#8211; MATHS WEEK IRELAND<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Maths Week will take place from 11 - 19 Oct. 2025.
