D.Tech Puzzle Night

The D.Tech Math Club hosts an exploration-focused Puzzle Night for Middle Schoolers in the Bay Area, happening this year on Friday, December 5 from 4:30 to 6:30. This Puzzle Night features a variety of interactive puzzle stations, each offering a different way to explore the fun side of mathematics. Students can try AMC-style math challenge problems, explore creative math modeling activities, and work through hands-on puzzle stations that highlight logic, problem-solving, and discovery. Students are awarded raffle tickets for completing activities, with the opportunity to win fun prizes at the end. The goal of the event is to spark curiosity and help middle schoolers see math as enjoyable, engaging, and rewarding beyond the classroom. With puzzles for all levels, students can explore at their own pace, find what excites them, and build confidence in their problem-solving skills. We hope to inspire students and encourage them to pursue math.
