Brilliant Activities for Gifted and Talented Children

Open-ended activities to
challenge gifted and talented primary school children - that other children
will love too!

Brilliant Activities for
Gifted and Talented Children by Ashley McCabe Mowat provides open-ended
classroom activities to stretch more able pupils at Key Stage 2 (KS2). Based on
Bloom's Taxonomy, the activities will develop children's creative and critical thinking
skills. Gifted and talented children are not the only ones who will benefit
from this book! All the class will enjoy taking on these creative, open-ended
challenges.

Children will thoroughly
enjoy these activities. Some of the activities can last for days. Others, such
as the brainteasers, can be used for a quick warm-up to spark interest and
excite the brain.

Use the ideas in
Brilliant Publications' Brilliant Activities for Gifted and Talented Children
and have the confidence of knowing that the extra you are doing in the
classroom will really help pupils to develop their thinking skills on all six
levels of Bloom's Taxonomy: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis,
synthesis and evaluation.
