The Let’s Think! series of cognitive acceleration resources is based on<br />

research by King’s College which indicates that a child’s thinking ability<br />

can be nurtured and developed with the right tools and environment. It<br />

helps children to make the transition to higher levels of thinking and<br />

learning, accelerating their cognitive development and thus raising<br />

attainment. It also offers rich and dynamic opportunities to track pupils’<br />

cognitive processes and skills as they develop.<br />

The Let’s Think! series offers an excellent foundation for learning,<br />

covering the core primary subjects of Literacy, Maths and Science. The<br />

series also includes an Early Years resource and the Let’s Think!<br />

Handbook, designed to provide an introduction to developing thinking in<br />

the primary school, plus support for users of the Let’s Think! series.<br />
