Find your way through this set of 3 maths mazes while solving percentage problems.
Practise How to Find the Whole From a Percent
These maths mazes, designed for students in Year 6, challenge students to use their understanding of percentages to find the whole. Each maze features a series of interconnected boxes, with a question in each large rectangle. Students must calculate the answer and then navigate the maze to find the correct path to the end. These mazes are a fun and engaging way to reinforce students’ understanding of percentages and help them develop their problem-solving skills.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding
In addition to independent student work time, use this worksheet as an activity for:
- Maths groups
- Lesson warm-up
- Lesson wrap-up
- Fast finishers
- Homework assignment
- Whole-class review (via smartboard)
For students who need a bit of a challenge, encourage students to change values so that a dead-end path leads to the correct answer.
For students who need additional support, allow access to a multiplication chart. Have a laminated proportion solver that students can fill in the blanks to guide them along the process of solving.
