Just what I was looking for

My son has a lot of knowledge in his little brain but needs work on the skills required to put that knowledge together & to use. These activities are exactly what I was looking for, for him. For such a low price, there are a LOT of activities here: 327 pages worth, ranging from patterns to sorting to deductive reasoning to analogies. Gem of a find.

When my children took the Stanford Achievement Test,

they both scored well above grade level in everything except thinking skills. I heard about 'BTS' from a friend and thought it might help. After working with it just one year, they maxed out the thinking section of the test at the 99th percentile!
