Building Thinking Skills Book 3 - Verbal

Building Thinking Skills 3 Verbal

If you're looking for a brain-boosting win that actually holds your teen's attention, Building Thinking Skills: Level 3 Verbal is it. This isn't your average workbook—it's a cognitive workout dressed like an academic MVP. Designed for grades 7–12 and typically counted as ½ elective credit in high school, this award-magnet (we're talking Mensa Recommended, Cathy Duffy Top 100, and over a dozen others) is loaded with verbal reasoning challenges that sharpen the way your teen processes, connects, and communicates information across all subjects.

From analogies and antonyms to deductive logic and descriptive writing, each page nudges your teen to think a little deeper. He'll compare and contrast, follow multi-step directions, spot sequences, and even flex his skills in map reading and auditory memory. And because real life doesn't come in multiple-choice, these exercises teach flexible, real-world thinking.

This 384-page powerhouse is organized by skill, so you'll move through verbal similarities, differences, sequences, classifications, and analogies one at a time—no mental pileups here. Each concept builds on the last, and perforated pages mean you can work at your own pace (rip out a week's worth at a time if that's your style).

What sets this book apart is its proven results. Students who use it? Consistently higher scores on standardized tests—not just in English, but in math, science, and social studies, too. And with activities that feel more like brain games than boring drills, it's no wonder this series is a longtime favorite.

Bottom line: it's sharp, it's structured, and it works.
