Critical Thinking Detective Vocabulary Book 2

Critical Thinking Detective Vocabulary Book 2 features fun, easy-to-use detective mysteries that can be solved by anyone who's willing to carefully read them and study the evidence!

Perfect for grades 5-12+, these puzzles aren't solved through tricky logic or math concepts - they develop critical thinking skills by requiring students to read carefully, analyze and synthesize information, develop observation skills, build reading comprehension, and use deductive and inductive thinking skills. The story is presented on one page, with a worksheet on the facing page for students to fill in to describe their conclusions. 40 classroom/home-reproducible pages, softcover; answer key included.
