Description: This deck leads has three parts: 1. First students sort cards into two categories: Adjectives Vs. Things to Wear. 2. Next, they sort the SAME cards into two different categories: Open Vs. Closed 3. Finally, they sort the same words on a 2x2 matrix while considering all 4 categories at once. This deck is part of the Level 3 COGNITIVE FLEXIBILITY BUNDLE, which includes seven additional games. It is also part of the RAVEN REMIX BUNDLE: A MASHUP OF POE TITLES and supports reading of that book, which is available at www.wordtravelpress.com. This sorting activity is part of a Cognitive Flexibility study by Carolee Dean and Kelly Cartwright. For information about pre and post-tests and data collection, contact info@wordtravelpress.com. Cognitive flexibility is an important executive function skill needed for many abilities, including reading. Cognitive flexibility requires a person to switch between two different tasks or to think about more than one concept at the same time. By sorting words that belong to two different categories simultaneously, students can work on cognitive flexibility.
