About this title

Synopsis

A teacher and author of other books, Herbert Kohl here gives many invaluable practical suggestions for teachers and parents on developing new and imaginative ways to teach. In addition to math and games, he gives valuable techniques to get children to write by encouraging them to rely on their own experiences and their own language to produce stories, fables and poetry. He also suggests that games can be very valuable in stimulating children's imagination and thinking so that they can better comprehend complex math concepts, strategy and probability theory. Over 150 illustrations. (From book back cover).
