Odd & Even Numbers Logic Grid Puzzles is a fun and brain-boosting way to consolidate students’ understanding of odd and even numbers through logic-based challenges. Perfect for early finishers, maths rotations or enrichment tasks, these no-prep puzzles promote mathematical reasoning while reinforcing key number properties.

Each worksheet features two logic grid puzzles set within engaging fictional scenarios. Students must read a series of clues and use deductive reasoning to determine which number matches each condition. They will record their thinking by ticking and crossing a logic grid, narrowing down the possibilities to find the correct combinations. In doing so, they practise identifying odd and even numbers and apply what they know about number patterns and relationships.

These puzzles are ideal for supporting critical thinking and problem-solving in a structured, low-pressure format. They’re also excellent for encouraging mathematical discussion and collaboration when used in pairs or small groups. An answer key is included for all puzzles, making this resource suitable for independent use or self-checking.

Key Learning Outcomes:

• ✅ Identify odd and even numbers up to two digits
• ✅ Apply number properties to solve clues and eliminate options
• ✅ Use logic grids to organise and evaluate information
• ✅ Strengthen critical thinking and problem-solving through number-based scenarios

What’s Included:

• Three worksheets, each with two logic grid puzzles (six puzzles total)
• Engaging clues that focus on odd/even number properties
• Answer keys for all puzzles

Materials Needed:

• Printed worksheets
• Pencils or markers
• Optional: A3 paper and write-and-wipe sleeves for reusable small group work

How to Use:

• Introduce or review the properties of odd and even numbers as a class.
• Model how to use a logic grid by solving a sample puzzle together.
• Have students read each clue carefully and mark the grid with ticks and crosses to eliminate possibilities.
• Students continue narrowing down the options until they determine the correct matches.
• Use the answer key to allow students to check and reflect on their reasoning process.

Ideas for Classroom Use:

• 💡 Use during maths rotations as an independent or partner task
• 💡 Add to your fast finisher or extension activity folders
• 💡 Encourage peer discussion by having students explain their logic to a classmate
• 💡 Enlarge to A3 and reuse in write-and-wipe sleeves for collaborative group challenges

Top Teacher Tips:

• 💛 Highlight clue-specific vocabulary such as “more than”, “odd”, or “next to” to support comprehension
• 💛 Use colour-coding to track ticks and crosses for visual learners
• 💛 Encourage students to write a sentence explaining how they solved the puzzle

Odd & Even Numbers Logic Grid Puzzles is an exciting and accessible way to build reasoning, reinforce number concepts and boost engagement in your classroom maths block.
