Lateral Thinking
Puzzles: Lateral thinking means open-mind searching for really new solutions,
not just better uses of current ones.
Designed to improve your students’ problem solving skills and refine
their ability to apply logical deductive reasoning. You are given the opportunity to solve puzzling mysteries in
much the same way as a real detective - by asking yes or no questions to find
the solution to the proposed set of unusual circumstances. The goal is to find a logical explanation
for what appears to be an illogical situation. Clues & answers provided. 5 1/4” x 8 1/4 “, Grades
3-12. A man stands looking at a
portrait and says, “sons and brothers have I none, but this person’s father
is my father’s son.” Who is in the
portrait? Great Lateral Thinking

students to record their deductions.

Imponderables: Imponderables are the everyday mysteries of life that
aren’t very important—until they occur to you. Then they begin to gnaw at your brain like termites boring
through wood. An Imponderable is a
mystery that cannot be solved by numbers or measurements or standard
reference books. You will sleep better
when you find out where flies go in winter, why people don’t get goosebumps
on their faces, and why hamburger bun bottoms are so thin that they
disintegrate under the weight of the patty.
You will be a better person knowing all this. Terrific for warm up
exercises and essay topics, they make browsing material fun, too. Neat to know books by David Feldman! 200-250 pp each, 5 x 8, Ages 12 to adult Do
