Real learning can be fun with games for the brain!

The Engage the Brain: Games series offers practical activities that energize students, increase brain connections to content, and reinforce learning in a nonthreatening atmosphere.
 
Derived from tested, researchbased strategies found in the bestseller Worksheets Don’t Grow Dendrites, this book provides activities that incorporate games aligned with national academic standards for language arts, math, science, social studies, physical education, art, and music.
 
You will find brain-friendly activities that can be integrated easily into your lesson plans to inspire enthusiasm and help students achieve.
Each game provides learning objectives, a comprehensive materials list, step-by-step guidelines for playing the game, activities for extended learning, and required reproducibles such as game cards, game boards, and scorecards.
 
Discover favorites such as hopscotch, go fish, relay races, and charades applied to kindergarten content in games like Lovely- Letters Go Fish, Wacky Weather Charades, and Rhyme Time Bingo. All games include a focus activity, modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and a closing. Students actively process content as they play existing games, and construct and design a variety of new ones.
Use these engaging activities to supplement your curriculum goals in:
 
  • Letters, rhymes, and sequence
  • Numbers and counting
  • Maps, neighborhoods, and citizenship
  • Physical, life, and earth sciences
  • Art, music, physical education, and much more
 
Watch your students thrive and grow with creative experiences that incorporate movement, teamwork, healthy competition, and interpersonal skills!
