From the Back Cover
Here's an exciting, one-of-a-kind collection of "quickie" activities to help you stimulate the devleopment of thinking skills in children of varying abilities and review basic skills at all elementary grade levels!

Included are over 150 ready-to-go "total group," "partner," and "individual" activities, organized for easy use into four major subject and skill areas:

  • THINKING & REASONING--activities to build skills in classification, logic (putting the pieces together), quick decision making, problem solving, developing strategy, and creative thinking
  • MATH--activities to reinforce concepts and skills in numeration, computation, place value, estimation, fractions, geometry, relationship and patterns, and problem solving
  • LANGUAGE & WRITING--activities to improve skills with phonics, compound words, spelling, descriptive words, synonyms and antonyms, vocabulary, prefixes, suffixes, roots, and parts of speech
  • LISTENING & REMEMBERING--activities to develop skills in critical listening, following oral directions, and memory
Each of these "quickie" thinking skills activities is complete and ready for immediate use, including skill reviewed, grade level, group size, step-by-step directions, activity extenders, and answers or possible solutions, all in easy-to-read boldface type. Moreover, all are oral activities or require only pencil and paper, or chalkboard and chalk.

And, to help you select appropriate activities at a moment's notice, there's also a special Activity/Skills Index that lists all activities by subject matter, group size, and grade level.

Mind Joggers is a book you will turn to every day for stimulating activities that make kids think.
