Building Thinking Skills 3 Verbal

Critical Thinking Skills for Reading, Writing, Math, Science



Building Thinking Skills provides highly effective verbal and nonverbal reasoning activities to improve vocabulary, reading, writing, math, logic, and figural-spatial skills, as well as visual and auditory processing. This exceptional skill set provides a solid foundation for academic excellence and success on any assessment test.



The activities are sequenced developmentally. Each skill (for example, classifying) is presented first in the semi-concrete figural-spatial form and then in the abstract verbal form. Children learn to analyze relationships between objects, between words, and between objects and words as they:

• Observe, recognize, and describe characteristics.
  
  
• Distinguish similarities and differences.
  
  
• Identify and complete sequences, classifications, and analogies.
  

These processes help children develop superior thinking and communication skills that lead to deeper content learning in all subjects
