Item Description...
Building Thinking Skills provides highly effective verbal and nonverbal reasoning activities to improve vocabulary, reading, writing, math, logic, and figural-spatial skills, as well as visual and auditory processing. This exceptional skill set provides a solid foundation for academic excellence and success on any assessment test.
The activities are sequenced developmentally. Each skill (for example, classifying) is presented first in the semi-concrete figural-spatial form and then in the abstract verbal form. Children learn to analyze relationships between objects, between words, and between objects and words as they:
*Observe, recognize, and describe characteristics.
*Distinguish similarities and differences.
*Identify and complete sequences, classifications, and analogies.
These processes help children develop superior thinking and communication skills that lead to deeper content learning in all subjects.
In this software adventure, you and your team of critical thinkers must complete the verbal and figural activities in each of the 10 underground levels to rescue Dr. Cognito and restore order to the lab.
With both verbal and graphic instructions, this lively adventure nurtures independent learning, superior thinking, and communication skills.

 | Not Worth the $ Feb 20, 2010 |
| Grades 4-6? The level is for kids going from 2nd to 3rd grade, and we played at the hardest level. My 4th grader was terribly bored. Also, the games are not designed to be fun for children. It is a computerized test with bright colors. So much for building critical thinking skills at home. The graphics are poor, there isn't flexibility for the kids to choose which tests they want to take, and it is horribly boring. It is more like a flash card system versus a game where the kids are learning. I do not recommend it at all, not even for the incoming 3rd grader. Talk about making learning a chore! | | |  | Actually helps build cognitive skills Jul 31, 2009 |
| Our daughter is going into 3rd grade and really enjoys working with this program. I think it's because not only do they make games out of asking questions but the games are different each time. It keeps children engaged. I played with it a little to gauge the difficulty. It does get more challenging. But, what's best is that it starts out very easy and hooks the child in, then it gets more challenging. When going through the levels I saw the kinds of questions kids see on IQ or other intellect rating type tests. This is great to acclimate children to the types of questions they'll see on those tests and give them an advantage on being able to answer them correctly. This is better than a workbook for our child as she's had her fill of workbooks and it's difficult to get her to complete them whereas she's asking to do this program. | | | Write your own review about Building Thinking Skills Level 2 - Grades 4-6
