Introduction
Think of an analogy as a wonderful puzzle, and one has a great interdisciplinary teaching
exercise.
An analogy is a type of comparison. An analogy is when a likeness is found between two
unlike things. If approached as a puzzle, one solves the analogy by finding out how the
pieces fit together. What links the words to each other? 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 61. Use these sheets to provide your students
with practice in answering questions in a standardized-test format.
