Title: Not just for "Gifteds"... but for all THINKERS!
Review: Teachers, this is one of THE best sources for your young thinkers. Wollygoggles is a collection of reproducible brainteasers, all clustered around mathematics and nonverbal skills. I use them with my gifted kiddos, grades 3-5, and they beg for more! My students are even creating their OWN Wollygoggles. Ok, ok, here's a sample: I will give you a set of Wollygoggles, and a set of "NOT" Wollygoggles. See if you can tell what makes them a Wollygoggle! WOLLYGOGGLES: 1, 4, 9, 36 & 121 . "NOT" Wollygoggles: 5, 12, 33 and 130. The students have to not only discern that the Wollygoggle is a perfect square, but they have to write the "rule" and create more of the same. Very stimulating for those "mathy" and "nonverbal" geniuses of yours!
