Riddles & Puzzles

A class designed to improve a student’s logic, concentration and cognition by using a variety of different approaches that focus on key areas of the brain. Keeping to the traditional classroom experience, students will be exposed to hands-on activities (such as the Towers of Hanoi), strategy board games (Chess/Go) and memory challenges (matching, pattern recognition). Also, students will be exposed to numerous fun and creative “Brain Riddles” that focus on the development of logic and higher level understanding (Sudoku, (de)coding, Word Puzzles, Rebus, Math Riddles). Students will also have the opportunity to solve detective mysteries by finding clues and using hints by watching Bright Side videos, as well as using a number of other interactive games to improve their problem solving abilities. There will be options for other activities as well, which will include games from Google Earth and Trivia!
