  2. Partner Challenges – Place your students in like-ability pairs. Have the students race each other to complete the mazes as quickly as possible while accurately calculating the perimeters of the composite shapes.
  3. Interactive Whiteboard Fun – Project the diphthong maze on an interactive whiteboard for whole-class participation. Students can take turns solving the word problems and choosing the right path.
