How can they be connected or tied together? What is the relationship between them? cat is to meow as dog is to bark Although the example above may appear to be easy, it is an exercise that involves cognitive processes and critical-thinking skills One must comprehend the words read, categorize them, understand the connection between them, and then find a similar connection between a different pair of words In this case, both meow and bark are sounds that a cat and dog make, respectively Analogies written for this series will focus on a variety of word relationships They will develop, reinforce, and expand skills in the following areas: ~ visual imagery ~ reading comprehension ~ paying attention to detail (word sequence within word pairs) ~ vocabulary development ~ synonym, antonym, and homophone recognition and recall ~ understanding different shades of word meanings ~ reasoning ~ standardized-test taking Students will be able to demonstrate mastery by doing the following: ~ working with both multiple-choice and write-out question formats ~ analyzing and fixing incorrect analogies ~ writing their own analogies in both question and sentence format For interdisciplinary practice, some analogies will be subject-specific (addressing science, math, or social studies, for example) Others will push students to think outside of the box, as creative and imaginative connections between words will be asked for Students may then explain in writing or verbally (depending on skill level) how they created analogous word pairs or situations Blank answer sheets can be found on page 60 Use these sheets to provide your students with practice in answering questions in a standardized-test format ©Teacher Created Resources #3167 Analogies for Critical Thinking Introducing Analogies Directions: Fill in the word you think should go in the blank Duck is to duckling as cat is to _ Duck is to quack as lion is to _ Duck is to feathers as dog is to _ Duck is to wing as person is to _ Duck is to swim as rabbit is to _ What did you just do?

Mrs Shing continued, "The man who found the journal is going to sell it The price will be high This is because the journal will give new details about what really happened One entry is about a polar bear attack No one knew about the attack before Everyone will want to read about it." Landon said, "Something about that journal isn't right I'm in the dark, bumping into things, completely lost Still, I'm going to try and find my way until I see the light." Suddenly, Raina cried, ''A light bulb just went off in my head, and I can see! Landon is right that something is wrong! The journal is a fake because polar bears don't live in Antarctica! They only live in the Arctic, up near the North Pole." In the story, the phrase "being in the dark" is an analogy for ® understanding ® not understanding In the story, "a light bulb going off" is an analogy for ® getting an idea ® not getting an idea Explain why the phrases "being in the dark" and "a light bulb going off" help the reader picture how Landon and Raina feel in the story Challenge: Look in books or on the Internet to find and read parts of Scott's real journal ©Teacher Created Resources 51 #3167 Analogiesfor Critical Thinking Analogies in Reading Directions: Read the passage Answer the questions below "I know about a race that isn't a race," Cory said "It's an invitation to being cooked alive." "How can you compare a race to being cooked alive?" asked Nora "When it's the Badwater Ultramarathon,' Cory answered "The race begins in Death Valley, California It goes for 135 miles Runners have just six days to finish The race takes place in July Temperatures sizzle Air temperature is often 130 degrees F (54°C), but the road can heat up to 200 degrees F (93°C) Runners have to run on the road's white lines If they don't, their track shoes will melt." "No one can survive that!" Nora exclaimed "Most super athletes can't," Cory said, "but in 2007, Valmir Nunez from Brazil finished in less than 23 hours!" "So you could say Nunez really cooked," laughed Nora "Yes," said Cory "He burned the competition." 1 Most likely Cory makes an analogy between the race and being cooked alive because ® the race is in an oven ® the race is in a place that is as hot as an oven When Nora said that "Nunez really cooked," she mainly meant that ® Nunez ran at a very fast speed ® Nunez got really hot when he ran Explain how comparing the race to "an invitation to being cooked alive" helps a reader picture how it is to run in the Badwater Ultramarathon Challenge: Find out how you can enter the Badwater Ultramarathon by looking in books or on the Internet #3167 Analogies for Critical Thinking 52 ©Teacher Created Resources Analogies in Reading Directions: Read the passage Answer the questions below "I've brought the world to the table," Ben's father said "What you mean?" asked Ben "We have potatoes Potatoes first came from South America We're having corn Corn came from Central America And we're having blueberries from North America, as well as kiwi fruit from Asia." "That's surprising," said Hana, Ben's sister "I thought kiwi fruit came from New Zealand After all, people from New Zealand are known as 'kiwis:" "That's right," Ben's mother said "Today, kiwi fruit is grown in New Zealand It's exported around the world, but the fruit's origins, or beginnings, were in Asia." Ben's father added, "We have macadamia nuts and walnuts Macadamia nuts originated in Australia Walnuts were first grown in Europe." "Is there anything from Africa?" asked Ben "Coffee for the adults," laughed Ben's father and mother Ben's father said that he "brought the world to the table" because ® he brought a world map or globe to the table ® he was making an analogy about the foods' origins From the story, you can tell that kiwi fruit ® ® wasn't always exported from New Zealand has always been known as kiwi fruit Complete the analogy below Follow these rules: • In the first blank, write your name or place you are from • In the second blank, write your personal, state, or country nickname New Zealand: kiwis :: _ Challenge: Look in books or on the Internet to find out the origins of some other foods, such as bananas, watermelons, tomatoes, tea, and chickens ©Teacher Created Resources 53 #3167 Analogies for Critical Thinking Connection Review Directions: Look at the word pairs in the first column Think about how they are connected Match the word pairs in the first column with a phrase from the second column that tells how they are connected The first one has been done for you Hints: Use each phrase only once If you not know an answer right away, skip it Come back to it at the end Word Pairs J II How They Are Connected barn to farm A antonym (opposite) weight to wait B synonym (same meaning) thought to think C homophone (same sound) ferocious to gentle D multiple-meaning word fire truck to red E adjective ewe: lamb F classifying (group to member) leaf : leaves G past to present box: carton H one to more (plural) salt: pepper I purpose 10 can: can J where things go II scale: weigh K things or words that go together 12 dog: Dalmatian L family names Challenge: Write two sentences In each sentence, use the rnultiple-meaninq word from above in a different way #3167 Analogiesfor Critical Thinking 54 ©Teacher Created Resources Connection Review Directions: Look at the word pairs in the first column Think about how they are connected Match the word pairs in the first column with a phrase from the second column that tells how they are connected The first one has been done for you Hints: Use each phrase only once If you not know an answer right away, skip it Come back to it at the end Word Pairs K II How They Are Connected skyscraper to tall A antonym (opposite) storm: hurricane B synonym (same meaning) park to park C homophone (same sound) disturb to annoy D less than/more than artist to paintbrush E family names F what people use remember to forget penguin: feathers G part name to animal knew to new H multiple-meaning word I outside or on top actor to actress J classifying (member to group) 10 mare to colt 11 bench: furniture K adjective L male to female 12 paw: lion Challenge: Write two sentences In each sentence, use the rnultiple-rneaninq word from above in a different way ©Teacher Created Resources 55 #3167 Analogies for Critical Thinking Practice Being the Teacher Directions: It is your turn to teach Look at the word pair in the box Show how to find the answer to the analogy I approach ® ® : near © © appear: disappear reptile: eggs I practice: rehearse shrink: grow First, write out how the words in the box are connected • If you something, you Il.; "0"" it Next, tryout the connection with the other word pairs • If you -=0 something, you _d= it _e= -
