Puzzles
I love puzzles! Cross word, word search, seek and find puzzles are all my favorite.The children I tutor get excited when they put puzzles together. They think they are playing, but they are also learning. They learn problem solving skills, hand-eye coordination, and memory skills.
Have a conversation with your child as they are putting the puzzle together. Encourage your child to tell you about the puzzle pieces. Example questions and prompts are provided under the following puzzles.
*Ask your child to name the types of transportation. ( It is ok to use the word transportation, just explain what transportation means.)
* What color is the police car? (point to the color you would like them to name.)
* Which vehicle carries children to school?
* How many animals are in the puzzle?
* Which animal is the tallest/ shortest?
Puzzles are not just for little people. Puzzles can also be helpful for older children as well. There are many different puzzles that can help with different school related topics.
*What states boarder North Carolina?
* What is the capital of Indiana?
* Name two states that boarder the Atlantic Ocean.
There are so many option when finding puzzles here are links to puzzles that are similar to the ones pictured. Transportation, animals, and United States
