About this item

Critical thinking skills are more important than ever in academic and real-world situations. Daily 20-minute practice lessons help students apply critical thinking skills across subject areas. How it works: Monday–Friday: Full-page daily activities focus on a specific behavioral verb each day. The verb is defined at the top of the page so students become aware of when and how they are using the thinking skill. Questions and tasks are open-ended and can be used to promote peer-to-peer discussions as students share and discuss answers, while also fostering critical thinking skills. An answer key provides sample responses for each day’s activities. Evaluate students’ responses based on your own expectations and on what content your students have encountered.
