Description: This step-by-step introduction to teaching thinking skills in the primary grades will be useful to teachers, librarians and staff development personnel. It will be of particular interest to teachers of the gifted. Each thinking skill is explained in a full page reproducible format followed by a page offering book talks to be used to introduce favorite picture books that can be used to teach that skill to young children and two pages of reproducible activities for the children to do to practice the newly learned skill. Over 35 skills are taught ranging from analogy to hypothesizing to visual perception. This book will be a logical companion to Teaching Thinking Skills with Fairy Tales and Fantasy (Teacher Ideas Press, 2005) that focuses on teaching these skills to older students.
