Workman Publishing WP16660 Brain Quest Gr K

If only all children had someone as friendly and daring as red-haired Ryan the Lion to guide them through all the new learning necessary for successful kindergarten days in the classroom. Cheerful, slightly daffy Ryan can be found on nearly every question card in these two Brain Quest decks-whether he's eyeing some delicious red licorice as he demonstrates numerical concepts (""Which will buy more candy: the penny or the nickel?"") or cautiously approaching a bird's nest as he skydives into treetops (in a correct-the-narrative-sequence episode)-Brain Quest is beloved by kids, trusted by parents, used and recommended by teachers. It s the curriculum-based, fast-paced, question-and-answer game that challenges kids on the stuff they need to know, when they need to know it. It s the brand that says? It s fun to be smart!"" And it delivers-For kids, it s fun unplugged. For parents, it s the easiest, most trusted way to know if their children are keeping pace. Assisting in the relaunch is an advisory panel of ten of America s top educators, each of them winners of Teacher of the Year or Milken National Educator Awards. The result: completely revised questions and answers, with up to 20%new material, to bring each deck up to the Standards of today s curricula. The content is the same that kids will find on standardized tests, handled in such a way that it promotes mental flexibility.
