What FUN! Challenge young students’ right AND left brains as they encounter 11 different kinds of unique word puzzles that call for higher-level thinking and problem solving skills. These activities exercise and develop brainpower in the areas of logic, vocabulary development, and critical and creative thinking.

The diverse thinking activities correlate with the National Curriculum/Content area standards by developing an understanding of diversity in language use and patterns. They also apply reading and vocabulary strategies to improve understanding, fluency, listening, and effective speaking. One of the most valuable facets of learning educators can teach their students is how to think, and to think at higher levels. These puzzles create opportunities to learn thinking skills at higher levels, strengthen and enhance those skills, and improve them with daily use.
