Description

Let’s Think! is series of three books that encourages children at all levels of the primary school to think of new ideas and ways of doing things, to think outside the box, to look at the world they live in through new eyes, and to ask Why? or Why Not? Each book focuses on developing different thinking skills, (e.g., questioning, reasoning, problem-solving), but the activities across the series link together so that teachers can plan entire lessons or units by using activities from all three books.

The Let’s Think! series of books:

  • Is an effective tool in teaching thinking skills in a mainstream classroom programme or as part of a thinking skills programme
  • Contains activities that cover a range of thinking skill topics, including fluency, flexibility, originality, problem-solving, visualisation, questioning, reasoning, attribute listing, decision-making and analytical thinking
  • Provides easy-to-use reproducible activities for each level of the primary school
  • Recognises the importance of the four learning styles (visual, auditory, tactual and kinaesthetic) and so contains activities that meet the learning needs of these different styles

Brain Benders for Beginners! has been developed to enrich higher-order thinking skills in young children and build on their natural excitement for learning. Underpinned by the work of Bloom, Gardner, Dalton and Vygotsky, this lively book has been designed for children who are in their first years of school, although the open-ended nature of most of the problems makes them suitable for use with a wide variety of ages.
There are 30 topics each with 3 types of task:
  1. Sit and Think
  2. Go and Find Out
  3. Make and Create

This resource helps children develop skills in critical and higher-level thinking, inquiry process, communication and presentation.
