Literacy Perplexors is a six-book series of photocopiable logic puzzles, that requires school students to use the process of elimination to find answers. Each puzzle categorises information and lists clues, with problems solved by pupils using the ‘cross out and circle’ technique.
Each book includes 48 full-page puzzles with solutions. With six different books available, starting at beginners and becoming progressively more difficult, pupils can pick up a pencil and sharpen their deductive reasoning skills with these challenging logic puzzles.
