Description: We are the publisher, The Critical Thinking Co. and this is a brand new book in the latest edition. DescriptionA 48-page math book for Kindergarten and 1st Grade includes 152 analogies teaching standards-based analogies through analogical and mathematical reasoning.Analogies occur in life and frequently in high-stakes tests. Understanding analogies and the ability to reason analogically (reasoning used to identify, evaluate, and solve an analogy) are important problem-solving skills essential to mathematical development. It is, therefore, beneficial for students to learn about analogies as soon as reasonably possible. The immediate benefit is to recognize and solve simple analogies. The long-term benefits are improved reasoning skills that enable students to break problems into their component parts, recognize analogies embedded in arguments, and evaluate them.This fun activity book teaches students to break problems down into their component parts, making it easier to recognize familiar formats that enable students to produce solutions. The analogies in this book are designed around grade-appropriate standards for each of the five mathematics content strands as defined by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics:Number and OperationsAlgebraGeometryMeasurementData Analysis and ProbabilityThe beauty of many of the items presented here is that they are language independent. Thus, non-native English-speaking students have the opportunity to participate with all other students in the challenges presented. When all students are involved, each one has the opportunity to learn the basics and beauty of logic and mathematics while developing and strengthening language skills.AwardsDr. Toy Best Smart Play / Smart Toy ProductiParenting Media Award for Excellent ProductTexas Association for the Gifted and Talented - Legacy Book Award Nominee Test PrepMath Analogies prepares students to achieve top scores on all state assessments including: Naglieri Nonverbal Ability Test® (NNAT®) Cognitive Abilities Test™ (CogAT®) Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) / Talented and Gifted (TAG) Wechsler Intelligence Scales for Children® (WISC®) Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence™ (WPPSI™) and many more! --------------------------------------- Written by Linda and Doug Brumbaugh
