Number Search Puzzles
Series A Easy Level

Using puzzles is a great way to learn Math facts and develop mental calculation and thinking skills in a fun and easy way.

Most children are much more engaged and motivated solving puzzles than working out pages of traditional math facts.

Using these math puzzles below will help your child to develop their Math fact skills as well as their strategic thinking and reasoning.

There are different versions of each puzzle from 1st to 5th grade, so it is easy to find an easier or harder version of the same puzzle. Each puzzle comes complete with answers.

Number searches can be very useful for developing children's number recognition and memory skills.

They can also be a good way for some children to relax and focus on a straightforward task.

All of the puzzles on this page involve trying to find numbers in a number grid.

The puzzles on this easier page involve finding numbers written either horizontally - left to right, or vertically downwards.

There are no diagonal numbers on the number searches to make the numbers easier to find.

The sheets get gradually harder, with larger numbers and bigger grids.

Using these sheets will help your child to:
