Critical And Creative 2

Critical & Creative Thinking Activities, Grade 2 is 160 pages of brain-sparking challenges for 7–8-year-olds who are ready to think in new ways. Inside are 46 themed units, each built on three pages. The first two pages will warm up his mind with prompts that mix what he knows, what he can dream up, and how those ideas connect. The third page drops the big challenge—maybe a secret code to break, a maze to solve, a Venn diagram to complete, or a riddle to unravel.

The topics bounce from everyday to outrageous: rainy days, dinosaurs, the zoo, spaghetti, penguins, Goldilocks, breakfast, bats, music, bunnies, and more. One week might have him deciding what a bunny is thinking; the next could have him comparing bugs and bats or designing his own library map. Each challenge blends imagination and logic so he's solving problems while inventing new possibilities.

Teacher support pages keep you on track, and every student page is reproducible for home use—just copy what you need. An answer key is included, so checking work is quick and painless.

From Groundhog Day to Hansel and Gretel, this book keeps your child's brain busy with comparing, sorting, decoding, generalizing, and creating—one themed adventure at a time.
