Building Thinking Skills® Level 1

Description

(Grades 2-3) Building Thinking Skills® provides highly effective verbal and
nonverbal reasoning activities to improve students’ vocabulary, reading,
writing, math, logic, and figural-spatial skills, as well as their visual and
auditory processing. This exceptional series provides a solid foundation for
academic excellence and success in any assessment. The 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 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
students develop superior thinking and communication skills that lead to
deeper content learning in all subjects. Teaching Support: Activities are
modeled to reinforce skills and concepts. An answer guide is now included,
however, a separate Instruction/Answer Guide is also available but is not
required. The optional teaching guide includes objectives and focus questions
that reinforce analytic skills. Read more
