Description Contents/Reviews/Awards Sample Pages   Grade(s): 1-3 Activities: 238 Pages: 433 An analogy is a comparison that points out the similarities between things that are different in all other respects. Teaching students how to solve analogies not only develops their logical thinking, but also builds visual awareness and verbal proficiency. The seven different types of visual analogies and 14 different verbal analogies in Analogies for Beginners are perfect for beginning lessons in logical reasoning, flexible thinking, and vocabulary. Each page gives students an example of the type of analogy that is being introduced and then provides 7 (visual) or 10 (verbal) problems for them to solve. This combination of verbal and visual formats is an ideal way to introduce logical thinking in primary grades. Whether you have time for one analogy a day or a worksheet a week, students will benefit in many ways when analogies are part of their learning. The use of visual analogies is beneficial for developing visual analysis even for older students, but especially useful for non readers. The verbal analogies provide students with exercises that require them to use word comprehension and also to examine various characteristics, uses, and relationships.This is one of a series of analogy books. For younger students, use First Time Analogies. For older students, use Advancing Though Analogies.
