You've just started at a new school and after some days, you finally find a friend, someone who makes the daunting halls seem a bit more welcoming. But then, one day, your friend doesn't show up to school. Concerned, you search around, only to find a cryptic note left in their locker. It reads, "I've been taken, and only you can save me."

The note is filled with puzzles and riddles. Your heart races as you realize this is no ordinary situation; your friend is in trouble and counting on you. Will you decipher the code, unlock the door, and prove the unbreakable strength of friendship?

How long does this activity take to complete?

It really depends on a lot of things. Estimated completion time is 30-45 minutes but it’s based on the kids’ puzzle skills, group size, and age. We recommend ages 6-10 years old.

How many kids can play at once?

Kids can play individually, with friends, or in large groups. There really is no limit to the number of players.

What if the kids get stuck on one of the puzzles?

First off, let them think for a bit! This is where critical thinking skills come in. If they get stuck, hint cards have been included in your download to guide them. It is advised that you preview the puzzles first, so you understand how to complete them.

Where do kids start?

Kids can start on any puzzles and complete the puzzles in ANY order!

How do you know if their answers are correct?

There is an answer key provided in the PDF.

How do I set up the activity?

Just print and play! Everything you need is included in your download. You don’t need locks (you can definitely prepare one if you wish to), envelopes, or special equipment. You can hang or hide the puzzles or just spread them out on the kitchen table.

Do I have to print out the game materials for every kid?

Nope! You ONLY have to print out the answer sheet for each kid or group. Just one set of the actual puzzles is all you need!

Best Real-Life Math! RSA Encryption - All the math you need to encrypt data

By Daniel

Where do we use school mathematics in real life?

The following complete guide sets out ALL the mathematics we do in middle and early high school used in the RSA Public Key Cryptosystem.

RSA Encryption is one of the most modern and powerful methods of encryption and is used by computer scientists, big banks and websites who need to secure data.

Do not be surprised, the list is complete and no other, more complicated mathematics is ever used in RSA Encryption.
Topics done in grade school: Factors, Multiples, Products, Times Tables, Division, Remainders, Integers, Prime Numbers, Composite Numbers, Exponents, Rules for Divisibility etc.

Topics not specifically done in grade school but for which 7th-10th grade students possess ALL the mathematics knowledge: Modular Arithmetic, Successive Squaring, The Euclidean Algorithm, The Euler Phi Function, Euler's Formula, The Extended Euclidean Algorithm

It is important that students know (and that teachers always remind them) when they are busy with these topics, that they are learning fundamental mathematics needed to encrypt data and secret messages.

If you need the Tasks and Keys on All the Math needed for the RSA encryption, this is all of it, in A BUNDLE! Get it here:
