Reviews for Building Thinking Skills® Beginning 1

I started purchasing The Critical Thinking Co.™ products when my children were toddlers. They were early readers so we wanted to reinforce their abilities with a structured program that we could continue for years. Building Thinking Skills® and Dr. DooRiddles were excellent products to jump start our children into formalized learning. And the best part is that they were having FUN while learning! Besides providing excellent educational material, The Critical Thinking Company™ has incomparable customer service. They have helped me order the appropriate products, install the software, and been a continuous source of encouragement throughout the years. I cannot imagine homeschooling without their products and support.

Transfer potential is high.…The amount of reinforcement is outstanding.

We have been using Building Thinking Skills® for years and have found them invaluable in providing students with the mental tools they need to be enthusiastic learners.

Prepares students' minds for logic.

Students who are still acquiring English face a lack of background knowledge in English and the skills necessary to process the new information. Building Thinking Skills® has helped me meet both these challenges, and I have test scores and happy faces to back this up.

Dear The Critical Thinking Company:Last year I took the responsibility of using Building Thinking Skills® with a number of our students as an experiment. In my 17 years in the district, I haven't seen anything work the way this program did. The improvement was phenomenal, especially for our at-risk populations and second-language students. It pulled them up in one year as I could not have imagined possible. We love it and are ordering it for our primary students and, in time, for the entire school.

Dear The Critical Thinking Company: We decided to do a limited experiment with students in our school to see if Building Thinking Skills® would help them perform better on standardized and state tests. Last year I began to work directly with some of our students after school. The improvement was remarkable. Test scores went up even after the first few months we used the program. I'm totally sold on the program and will be ordering it for my school. I'd like to see Building Thinking Skills® for every child in every classroom to begin each day.

Looking for a way to help students exercise their mental muscles, organize their thinking, or increase their test scores? Check out Building Thinking Skills®! You'll find the boost you're looking for.

As I was working on the activities with my children, I really had only one question: 'Where was Building Thinking Skills® when we were kids?'
