Super Smart, 180 Challenging Thinking Activities

Super Smart, 180 Challenging Thinking Activities, Words, and Ideas for Advanced Students by Stephen S. Young

Put the minds of bright kids in overdrive! Filled with 180 "activity-a-day" classroom warm-ups that include new, challenging vocabulary activities and critical thinking activities that push the limits, Super Smart will pique kids' curiosity and tickle their funny bone.

Challenge students with Super Smart's creative and wacky activities:

• Logic puzzlers
• Crime detection and mysteries to solve
• Word games and riddles
• Math games that amaze
• Card tricks that confound

Try this puzzler for yourself! A woman states that she headed her car north on straight road and drove for 100 years. She says she then ended up 100 yards south of where she started. She also states there are two ways she can do it. Can you figure it out? (Give up? See page 78). These short, attention-getting mind stretchers serve to grab the students' attention and create a frame of mind and an atmosphere of fun, curiosity, or discovery conducive to getting kids off to a good start. There are three "thinking hooks" for each day, a vocabulary word, a thought for the day, and a critical thinking hook, each designed to get students thinking and into a receptive mind set.
