Critical Thinkers

One of our K/1st grade activities today was solving riddles. Using flexibility is part of being a critical thinker. We do this a lot every Tuesday as we stretch our minds and think in different ways. Ask your child to help you solve these riddles. Leave your answers under comments. Stretch your mind even further and leave a riddle for me!

1. I fly through the air,
and I start with A;
Fasten your seat belt,
And we're on our way.
What am I? __________

2. I sit upon your shoulders,
And I end with K;
You would surely lose your head,
If I went away.
What am I?___________

3. I look out on the world,
And I start with E;
You would depend upon hearing,
If it weren't for me.
What am I? ___________

HAVE FUN!!
