Critical Thinking Math Detective®

The Math Detective® series uses topics and skills drawn from national math standards to prepare students for advanced math courses and assessments that measure reasoning, reading comprehension, and writing in math.

The student reads a short story that includes a chart, table, or graph, and answers critical thinking questions to improve understanding of the math concept and develop critical thinking (comprehension) skills. Students can’t just scan the story for answers—they must carefully analyze and synthesize the information from the text and the chart, table, or graph to explain and support their answers. Stories are age-relevant, high-interest, and show students that math is integral to everyday activities.
