Good for teaching students how to organize science concepts and for teaching the organizational skills needed for writing. I've also been pleased with the dual levels of vocabulary study. The higher-level terms will be invaluable when it's SAT time.

"Thinking Connections is an extremely good choice for students with special behavioral and intellectual needs because the concept maps make the organization of the life sciences so visual. With the use of the overhead projector and sheets of butcher paper for drawing the maps, it can also become kinesthetic."

A useful book for students of life science, particularly those who have trouble making connections between concepts. Teachers needing materials for students whose primary language is not English or who do not have strong reading skills will find these maps a valuable tool. Whether used as study material, portfolio assessment, testing material, or as writing exercises, this book is a valuable teaching tool.
