Author Brings 'Think Button' To Maplewood Bookstore

MAPLEWOOD, NJ - Author Lin Josephson, a former first grade teacher and journalist, will be discussing her book "Making Everyday Choices: Helping Students in Grade 2-5 Practice the Art of Thinking" on Thursday at 4 p.m. at [words] bookstore.

According to Josephson, the book serves as a “Think Button” for any educator who has ever heard a student say, “I can’t think” or “I can’t decide!”

Fifty prompts or thinking conduits are the catalysts that will give students a chance to practice thinking. The prompts are formatted as brief stories, exercises, poems, and activities and are designed so kids can use the same thinking skill sets that are essential in making everyday decisions.
