Book Synopsis
Foster your fifth grader's critical thinking skills and see confidence soar with this engaging full-color workbook!
Children are naturally inquisitive from infancy, yet creative and problem-solving skills need to be nurtured as children grow. Like reading and math skills, critical thinking skills require practice.
The variety of fun and creative activities in Skill Sharpeners: Critical Thinking will challenge your child to use higher-order thinking skills based on Bloom's Taxonomy.
Every page provides a new and interesting activity that will help your child:
- Think outside the box and use higher-order thinking skills through open-ended questions and challenges
- Tap into his or her creativity with art projects and hands-on activities
- Become a better learner by practicing critical thinking skills in cross-curricular activities (based on science, math, social studies, and language arts content)
The 100+ activities are organized around these 5th grade themes:
- Places: At Home; Around Town
- Nature: Forests and Deserts; Mountains and Caves
- About You: How You Feel; What You Do
- Resources: We Use Natural Resources; We Use Man-made Things

- Analyze
- Solve
