To successfully function in school and beyond, children need to learn more than a set of facts and skills. They need to master a set of mental tools—tools of the mind. The concept of "Tools of the Mind" comes from the work of Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky , He believed that just as physical tools extend our physical abilities , mental tools extend our mental abilities to enable us to solve problems and create solutions in the modern world According to Vygotsky, until children learn to use mental tools, their learning is largely controlled by the environment: they attend only to the things that are the brightest or loudest and they can remember something only if has been repeated many times.
