In this lesson, students study the internal and external characteristics of a character from their novel study. The Logic Smart Character Detective completes a worksheet that compares and contrasts the characters behavior with the effect it has on others. Students complete the task with a graph that demonstrates the number of friends vs. foes. Is there a correlation between data A and B?
Logic Smart students enjoy puzzles and board games that require critical thinking, problem solving, and number games.

There are so many wonderful apps for ipad, iphones, and android devices. The internet provides free games as well. Search for the subject at hand in Google and you are sure to come up with more than you can imagine. Favourites of mine: - Math vs. Zombies - Factor Samurai - Motion Math - Wings
Logic Smart students love hands-on experiments. Inquiry-based learning is sure to excite students imaginations and their problems solving skills.
Conduct labs that have student asking key questions, and designing original experiments for themselves. Check out this wonderful TEDtalk that incorporates the skills of picture book making with an electricity: http://on.ted.com/Buechley
