Literacy

I have a student who is amazing with puzzles. How can I use this in his writing and other learning?

Hopefully because he is good at puzzles, the student also likes to do puzzles. Try to capitalize on what the student likes to do to encourage the development of skills in other areas. For example:

• You could explain the writing is similar to a puzzle. Each section is a little piece that fit together.
• He could write word puzzles with an answer in the back.
• Look for good mystery books at his level and have the student look for, discuss, or write about the ways a mystery is similar to a puzzle.
• Have him create his own puzzle. Once the student has created her puzzle, she can write a commercial for it, market it to the class, create a box for it, or construct a pamphlet to sell her puzzle.
