    This journal indicates the necessity of applying critical thinking and
    provides an example of how critical thinking; creativity and flexibility in finding such ways help students to
    better understand the concepts of number sense. This discipline of reasoning results with students who develop
    the ability with focused thinking, planning and strategizing, which have been identified as key aspects of
    organizational success, decision making, and life choices.

    I think that this article is really helpful to mathematics teachers because it really puts emphasis on how teachers can assist students in getting to that critical thinking skill. They have to look carefully in blooms taxonomy and other ways that it would help students. This article also allows for readers to take a look into issues, pros and cons of critical thinking in mathematics instruction.
