About the Event

Workshop Summary:

The Great Detective Challenge is a two-day workshop that will develop and extend the thinking skills of gifted students based on a stimulating detective case investigation. Designed to challenge the logical reasoning and thinking abilities of gifted students, students will work together and compete in groups in deducing clues, tackling complex puzzles, solving real-life problems - with the aim of finding the ultimate culprit!

This is a multi-disciplinary thinking skills workshop that will combine English, Maths and Logic. The primary school stream is designed for Years 3-6 and will cover the following topics and skill sets:

Academic: logical thinking, problem solving, deductive reasoning, number sequencing and patterns, chance, spelling, non-verbal reasoning and understanding character intentions.

Communication: brainstorming, teamwork, persuasive/rhetoric, abstract thinking, presentation skills and understanding justice.

The workshop will be led by Ms Wong and Dr Kwok:
