Story-based learning for concrete understanding
At the core of Enigmathico is a set of “Enigmathico Boxes”—interactive kits containing short mystery stories hosted on Genially, math tools, and collaborative games. Each box invites students to become detectives, solving societal or environmental challenges where math becomes the key to unlocking the story. By embedding mathematical thinking in real-life contexts and literacy-based scenarios, Enigmathico helps children better understand and apply math concepts in a playful, low-pressure environment.

Innovative tools to boost engagement
Beyond the stories themselves, the project includes a pedagogical guide for teachers, training sessions, and classroom workshops. The materials are designed to be inclusive, tactile, and adaptable, ensuring that all learners—especially those who struggle with traditional approaches—can participate meaningfully. Enigmathico also promotes cross-border collaboration among educators, fostering the exchange of best practices in gamified and interdisciplinary teaching.
Inspiring confidence through creativity
Enigmathico does more than teach math—it encourages students to think critically, collaborate, and express themselves. By bridging literacy and numeracy, the project nurtures essential 21st-century skills and supports the development of learners who feel capable and curious. Whether it’s through solving puzzles or crafting their own math-based stories, students engage both heart and mind.
