Description: We are the publisher, The Critical Thinking Co. and this is a brand new book in the latest edition. Description This engaging 320-page book develops the critical thinking skills necessary for success in reading, writing, math, science, social studies, and standardized tests in Grades 2-3. The Building Thinking Skills® series is the bestselling thinking skills program in the world! The engaging, highly-effective activities are developmentally sequenced. Each skill (for example, classifying) is presented first in the semi-concrete, figural-spatial form and then in the abstract verbal form. Students also learn important academic vocabulary, concepts, and skills as they analyze relationships between objects, between words, and between objects and words by: - Observing, recognizing, and describing characteristics - Distinguishing similarities and differences - Identifying and completing sequences, classifications, and analogiesThese processes help students develop superior thinking and communication skills that lead to deeper content learning in all subjects.
