Introduce your Grade 3 and 4 students to more complex thinking challenges -- questions to be answered, solutions to be found, and discoveries to be made. The 44 lessons in critical thinking presented here are each comprised of: a chart that poses a problem or question, notes to the teacher with suggestions and an answer key, and a reproducible student page to be used with the chart or as follow-up practice. The variety of activities in this book will strengthen students' thinking skills and enhance learning. The charts and student pages help students to:* Think Critically - sort, classify, analyze, and compare and contrast* Think Logically - use analogies, predictions, and patterns* Think Creatively - develop fluency and original ideas* Solve Problems - define the problem, analyze information, hypothesize, validate, and judgeExamples of skills of increased complexity from the Grade 1-2 volume include using Venn Diagrams and understanding syllogisms. One of the greatest benefits to be gained through these thinking activities is in the sharing of ideas and strategies among students (and teacher). The format of this book promotes this process and provides an opportunity to reward well-thought-out strategies and unique problem-solving approaches as well as correct answers. Clear charts and graphs highlighted by cute, comical illustrations throughout. All 88 pages perforated for easy removal.
