What Are These Halloween Logic Puzzles & Balance Beams?
These are logic puzzles with a Halloween theme. Each puzzle displays a beam or equation-like layout: students figure out unknown values so both sides balance. With ghosts, pumpkins, bats, or other spooky graphics, the Halloween décor makes solving feel like a seasonal puzzle adventure—not just more math.
They’re perfect to use in October, either during centers, as warm-ups, or as enrichment for students who love a challenge.
Why Teachers Love Them
Teachers often look for things that do more than “just practice”—they want challenge, thinking, and engagement. These Halloween puzzles deliver all three.
These are especially helpful for:
-
Fast finishers who need something more enriching than usual work
-
Gifted students or those who thrive with open-ended thinking
-
Morning work or bell ringers at a time when class is still settling in
-
Math talks where students share strategies and reasoning
-
Small groups or partners collaborating to solve puzzles
-
Homework or challenge packets that feel seasonal and fun
Because these puzzles come in both print and digital formats, you can use them in class or assign them online, send them home, or use them as extra practice.
