Code breaker puzzles help pupils think logically and identify hidden rules. They use patterns, shapes, and sequences to build skills in reasoning and visual recognition.

Fascinating Fact:
Robots and artificial intelligence use coding and pattern recognition that work in a similar way to non-verbal reasoning puzzles.
In 11 Plus Non-Verbal Reasoning, pupils practise recognising patterns and solving visual problems. These activities improve concentration, logic, and pattern recognition – skills that also help in technology and science.
Key Terms
Pattern: A repeated or organised design that follows a logical rule.
Sequence: A series of shapes or images arranged in a particular order.
Reasoning: The ability to think clearly and solve problems through logic and understanding.
What do code breaker questions test in the 11 Plus?
They test a pupil’s ability to spot visual rules, patterns, and sequences. This improves logical thinking and problem-solving skills needed in many subjects.
How does code breaking relate to artificial intelligence?
AI uses coding and pattern recognition to process information. This works similarly to how pupils solve non-verbal reasoning puzzles by identifying consistent rules.
Why is non-verbal reasoning important for children?
It develops skills in logic, attention, and analysis – helping pupils think independently and approach challenges with confidence in different subjects.
