Learning With Classroom Puzzlers

My husband--author, teacher, and consultant Ron Cougler--and I have taught for many years in one way or another, but mostly high school age kids learning Business Subjects, English and French. As teachers we experienced a common problem finding materials to engage students while actually teaching them what they need to know. Ron got the idea to make up games using course material and related material and the idea paid off immediately. His Law students enjoyed the Classroom Puzzlers Law Studies Edition that was his first collection, and we haven't looked back since.

Currently we have many titles we are updating, along with our website which has been under construction for quite a while--why does the list of things needing doing always seem so much longer than the time available to do them? Anyhow, we are revamping and transfering the data to CD for shipment, rather than the cumbersome binders of 120 pages we used to ship. At this point we have the following titles revamped:

1. Junior English (pictured above)
2. Accounting
3. American History
4. Computer Studies
5. Marketing Studies
These are on disk and ready to ship.

The other titles we are updating and revamping are:

6. Senior English
7. Introduction to Business
8. Canadian History
9. Economics
10. Entrepreneurial Studies
11. American Law
12. Canadian Law

We have CD versions of the puzzlers which we ship and then the teachers can open the Adobe version and print what they need for their class. We have found that our classroom puzzlers make happy classes. Students like to learn when it is fun.
