COGAT for 4TH and 5th grades Scholars is designed to help improve a student’s critical thinking, problem solving, and logical reasoning skills. I have created 1000 questions for students to practice with. I have included a combination of question types that vary significantly in difficulty. Some of the questions are multiple choice and others are open- ended, in order to enhance the rigor of the question sets. This app helps prepare students for the Cognitive ability Test grade for 4th and 5th grades. This app will provide an overview of the different types of question related to grade 4th and 5th , level 10-11. General ability questions have been imbedded throughout this app. They measure the student’s ability to retain and retrieve information from their short-term memory. These questions can provide insight about areas in which students can enhance their reasoning skills, given tailored individual instruction.
