It's time to shake ourselves out of this mid-winter slump! Maybe it's just me, but I've been starving for some good brain exercises lately and I've found just the site to help me out. Archimedes' Lab has an amazing collection of math puzzles and mental activities that can get steam coming out of your students' ears. Look at the puzzle of the month or the online magic card trick (can you figure out how they do it??) in the Puzzles and Tests Section. Check out reality-bending illusions in the Illusions and Paradoxes tab....
Which way is the man facing?
Try your reaction time with the infamous Stroop Test. Solve the Droodle of the month... what's a Droodle, you ask? Here's an example...
What are these?
1. A shark returning from Disney World. hehe
2. A koala climbing the other side of a tree. See him?
There is so much to explore! Check it out and get your students thinking in different ways!
