Additional tips for running this resource.
Leader Tip #1
Mix up the groups
Pair staff from different grade levels or departments so people who don't usually work together end up solving side by side.
Leader Tip #2
Team versus team
Split staff into small teams instead of solving solo, then compare answers as a group before revealing the winner.
