Editor in Chief improves students' grammar, punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and attention to detail using a standards-based thinking approach rather than drill and practice. This effective method teaches students to carefully analyze and edit stories that contain errors in writing mechanics and story details. The stories involve mixed-skills practice, starting with easier errors and becoming more challenging as students become adept at the editing process. Students identify and circle errors in each story. Then they insert, modify, or delete punctuation, words, and short phrases to make corrections. An editing checklist and annotated guide to grammar, usage, and punctuation are provided to help focus students' thinking and allow them to match their answers to applicable rules. Detailed answers are also included.

Editor in Chief Level B2 - CD

The Critical Thinking Co.

These fun, popular "mind-bending" activities will improve students' deductive reasoning and reading comprehension to ensure higher grades and top test scores. Students develop these skills by searching through each Mind Benders activity, carefully examining obvious and not-so-obvious clues for information they can use to make logical connections. Activity grids are provided to help students keep track of information and to focus their thinking. Each book includes strategies for solving the problems and detailed answers. There is a slight increase in difficulty within levels (A-2 is harder than A-1) and a greater jump in difficulty from one level to the next (Level B is harder than Level A).
