The deeper analysis required to classify an analogy produces a better understanding of analogies and develops a host of critical thinking skills.
Analogy types include kind of, part of, synonym of, antonym of, symbol of, product of, person who, something used to, degree of, property of.

I have already purchased the same books to use with my younger child. :) | | | Karen H, Co-op Member |
| | We are using Language Smarts B for my Kindergartner and C for my 1st grader. I am very impressed with this curriculum.
