• THINKING & REASONING--activities to build skills in classification, logic (putting the pieces together), quick decision making, problem solving, developing strategy, and creative thinking
• MATH--activities to reinforce concepts and skills in numeration, computation, place value, estimation, fractions, geometry, relationship and patterns, and problem solving
• LANGUAGE & WRITING--activities to improve skills with phonics, compound words, spelling, descriptive words, synonyms and antonyms, vocabulary, prefixes, suffixes, roots, and parts of speech
• LISTENING & REMEMBERING--activities to develop skills in critical listening, following oral directions, and memory

And, to help you select appropriate activities at a moment's notice, there's also a special Activity/Skills Index that lists all activities by subject matter, group size, and grade level.
