Robot Maze

Okay, I have a new maze game that you solve on the screen! Move your robot through the maze, picking up clocks (for extra time), maps (to see a view of the whole maze), and hammers (press Enter to hammer through a wall). I like this because you only see part of the maze, and visual-spatial memory is built when you study the map to find the exit.

Visual Organizers

I’ve been looking for a good site (free is good) full of visual organizers for busy teachers. I think I have found the best one:

You can adapt them quickly and save them if you register.

Do you like mazes as much as I do? Here’s the best one I could find. If you find one that lets you solve the maze right on the monitor, let me know!

Visual Memory Games

Visual Memory Games - With so much on TV and in videogames, you’d think kids would be getting better at visual memory, but because the visual image is always provided for them, the skill of visualization (used in spelling, listening, and following directions) is worse now than 10 years ago. The solution? Build the ability to “see in the mind’s eye” with some online games!
