If you are the teacher (or even the parent) of a gifted and talented child, you'll understand the challenges involved in providing the mental stimulation they require. Brilliant Activities for Stretching Gifted and Talented Children by Ashley McCabe Mowat will help you to meet these challenges.

Brilliant Activities for Stretching Gifted and Talented Children provides activities to challenge the more able Key Stage 2 (KS2) child and develop their analytical, creative and evaluative skills. Activities range from quick warm-ups, brainteasers and whole class activities to maths focussed problems and open-ended challenges for pupils to work on independently.

Brilliant Activities for Stretching Gifted and Talented Children by Ashley McCabe Mowat provides open-ended mental activities to stimulate gifted and talented primary school children.

All the worksheets are photocopiable and require minimal preparation, so that you can easily select the best activity to suit your particular needs. With over 100 activities, Brilliant Activities for Stretching Gifted and Talented Children will be able to keep stretching your pupils for many years to come.

While written mainly for more able pupils, all children will love these fun activities, which are based on Bloom's Taxonomy, the Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking and other research. Challenge pupils and help them to develop their imaginations and creative thinking skills with activities such as writing a cookbook for alligators or thinking about how life would be different if we had six fingers on each hand.
