Description

Ridgewood Analogies 5 contains an introductory section about how analogies work and some practice exercises. The rest of book 4 is organized by subject areas:
• Geography
• History and Government
• Language Arts
• Math

Students solve analogies in each of these areas, which enable them to use information they are learning in the subject areas. In all exercises, students provide missing terms in analogies and write out a phrase that describes the particular relationship; for example, a bat is used to hit a ball, just as a racket is used to hit a tennis ball. Teachers then have an opportunity to assess students’ grasp of content, as well as their ability to use analogies to identify relationships and make connections.

About Ridgewood Analogies: Help students become independent thinkers and problem solvers by using analogies as early as kindergarten in language arts, social studies, science, and math as a way of identifying relationships and making connections.

Help students become independent thinkers and problem solvers
This series of books is based on curriculum developed by teachers in the Ridgewood, New Jersey, Public Schools. Ridgewood students begin in kindergarten to use analogies in language arts, social studies, science, and math as a way of identifying relationships and making connections. Once students learn how to solve analogies–and to create their own–they can use these abilities in any subject, as ways of learning and remembering information.
