Visual Thinking Puzzles for Selective and Scholarship Test Book 1

Various schools have scholarship entry tests, some of which are standardised and others of which are specially designed by the school. In the range of tests used for scholarship entry there is a wide variety of question types. Visual reasoning puzzles and problems present a range of cognitive challenges. Some of these involve working memory, pattern completion and picture arrangements in 2D and 3D. Exposure to visual problems can improve a child’s confidence and ability with respect to understanding spatial relationships.

Visual Thinking Puzzles Book 1 contains 40 questions designed to teach and challenge students in developing their visual thinking skills. Answers with explanations and multiple choice answer sheets are also provided.
