Methods
The activities are sequenced developmentally. Each skill (for example, classifying) is presented first in the figural-spatial form and then in the abstract verbal form. Students 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 students develop superior thinking and communication skills that lead to deeper content learning in any subject.
