A fun way to introduce/teach students about analogies is through holidays. Use these analogies with students which pertain to popular holidays to teach this higher level thinking skill of analogies. It could help with IQ testing. There is also an answer key provided for your convenience. Of course, some answers may vary.

I have taught for 36 years at the 3rd, 5th, and 6th grade levels. Fifth grade is my first love. I teach all major subject areas. In addition to my regular classroom duties, I have taught in a Basic Skills summer school program for many years as well as taught workshops to co-workers in whole language and technology. My other duties at school include being "Teacher in Charge" and Student Council advisor.
