I print out on card stock or laminate each one of these puzzles. To save time I will have the students cut them out and that also gives them the ability to preview the puzzle before hand.

Then throughout my lessons over these topics I will periodically pass these out and give them 5-10 minutes to try and put them together. I will have races and time the students.

It is a fun way for them to review and try and piece the document together and it is great for your tactile learners.
