Mathematics Workbook for NTSE & Olympiad Grade 5

by Sandra Cook, Helen Leon

Critical Thinking Test-taking Practice for MATH Help students learn to think critically by giving them practice decoding test questions. This book presents three tests in which all the questions are correlated to International standardized multiple-choice tests. Begin with Test A which provides call-out tips on how to approach each problem. Progress to Test B which provides fewer tips. Test C provides no tips. Since the goal is to learn to think critically (not just score well), the answer key gives not just the right answers, but also explanations for why one answer is correct and the others are incorrect. The guidance, tips, and explanations help students figure out HOW to solve the problems, so they can arrive at the right answers. It sounds simple, but this approach can make a huge difference in the academic-and life-success of young people.
