20 Math Critical Thinking Questions to Ask in Class Tomorrow
- November 20, 2023
The level of apathy towards math is only increasing as each year passes and it’s up to us as teachers to make math class more meaningful . This list of math critical thinking questions will give you a quick starting point for getting your students to think deeper about any concept or problem.Â
Since artificial intelligence has basically changed schooling as we once knew it, I’ve seen a lot of districts and teachers looking for ways to lean into AI rather than run from it.
The idea of memorizing formulas and regurgitating information for a test is becoming more obsolete. We can now teach our students how to use their resources to make educated decisions and solve more complex problems.
With that in mind, teachers have more opportunities to get their students thinking about the why rather than the how.

What skills do we actually want to teach our students?
As professionals, we talk a lot about transferable skills that can be valuable in multiple jobs, such as leadership, event planning, or effective communication. The same can be said for high school students.Â
It’s important to think about the skills that we want them to have before they are catapulted into the adult world.Â
Do you want them to be able to collaborate and communicate effectively with their peers? Maybe you would prefer that they can articulate their thoughts in a way that makes sense to someone who knows nothing about the topic.
Whatever you decide are the most essential skills your students should learn, make sure to add them into your lesson objectives.
When should I ask these math critical thinking questions?
Critical thinking doesn’t have to be complex or fill an entire lesson. There are simple ways that you can start adding these types of questions into your lessons daily!
Start small
Add specific math critical thinking questions to your warm up or exit ticket routine. This is a great way to start or end your class because your students will be able to quickly show you what they understand.Â
Asking deeper questions at the beginning of your class can end up leading to really great discussions and get your students talking about math.
Add critical thinking questions to word problems
Word problems and real-life applications are the perfect place to add in critical thinking questions. Real-world applications offer a more choose-your-own-adventure style assignment where your students can expand on their thought processes.Â
They also allow your students to get creative and think outside of the box. These problem-solving skills play a critical role in helping your students develop critical thinking abilities.
Keep reading for math critical thinking questions that can be applied to any subject or topic!
When you want your students to defend their answers.

How To Encourage Critical Thinking in Math

Critical thinking is more than just a buzzword⌠Itâs an essential skill that helps students develop problem-solving abilities and make logical connections between different concepts. By encouraging critical thinking in math, students learn to approach problems more thoughtfully, they learn to analyze and evaluate math concepts, identify patterns and relationships, and explore different strategies for finding the solution. Critical thinking also involves a great deal of persistence. Those are critical life skills!
When you think about it, students are typically asked to solve math problems and find the answer. Showing their work is frequently stressed too, which is important, but not the end. Instead, students need to be able to look at math in different ways in order to truly grasp a complete understanding of math concepts. Mathematics requires logical reasoning, problem-solving, and abstract thinking.
What Does Critical Thinking in Math Look Like?
When I think about critical thinking in math, I focus on:
- Solving problems through logical thinking . Students learn how to break down complex problems, analyze the different parts, and understand how they fit together logically.
- Identifying patterns and making connections. Students learn how to identify patterns across different math concepts, make connections between seemingly unrelated topics, and develop a more in-depth understanding of how math works.
- Evaluating and comparing solutions. Students learn to evaluate which solution is best for a given problem and identify any flaws in their reasoning or others’ reasoning when looking at different solutions
Mathematician Posters
These FREE Marvelous Mathematician posters have been a staple in my classroom for the last 8+ years! I first started using a version from MissMathDork and adapted them for my classroom over the years.Â
I print, laminate, and add magnetic stickers on the back. At the beginning of the year, I only put one or two up at a time depending on our area of focus. Now, they are all hanging on my board, and Iâll pull out different ones depending on our area of focus. They are so empowering to my mathematicians and help them stay on track!
A Marvelous Mathematician:
- knows that quicker doesnât mean better
- looks for patterns
- knows mistakes happen and keeps going
- makes sense of the most important details
- embraces challenges and works through frustrations
- uses proper math vocabulary to explain their thinking
- shows their work and models their thinking
- discusses solutions and evaluates reasonableness
- gives context by labeling answers
- applies mathematical knowledge to similar situations
- checks for errors (computational and conceptual)
Critical Thinking Math Activities
Here are a few of my favorite critical thinking activities.
Square Of Numbers
I love to incorporate challenge problems (use Nrich and Openmiddle to get started) because they teach my students so much more than how to solve a math problem. They learn important lessons in teamwork, persistence, resiliency, and growth mindset. We talk about strategies for tackling difficult problems and the importance of not giving up when things get hard.
This square of numbers challenge was a hit!
ALL kids need to feel and learn to embrace challenge. Oftentimes, kids I see have rarely faced an academic challenge. Things have just come easy to them, so when it doesnât, they can lack strategies that will help them. In fact, they will often give up before they even get started.
I tell them itâs my job to make sure Iâm helping them stretch and grow their brain by giving them challenges. They donât love it at first, but they eventually do!
This domino challenge was another one from Nrich . Iâm always on the hunt for problems like this!! How would you guide students toward an answer??
Fifteen Cards
This is a well-loved math puzzle with my students, and itâs amazing for encouraging students to consider all options when solving a math problem.
We have number cards 1-15 (one of each number) and only seven are laid out. With the given clues, students need to figure out which seven cards should be put out and in what order. My students love these, and after theyâve done a few, they enjoy creating their own, too! Use products, differences, and quotients to increase the challenge.
This is also adapted from Nrich, which is an AMAZING resource for math enrichment!
This is one of my favorite fraction lessons that Iâve done for years! Huge shout out to Meg from The Teacher Studio for this one. I give each child a slip of paper with this figure and they have to silently write their answer and justification. Then I tally up the answers and have students take a side and DEBATE with their reasoning! Itâs an AMAZING conversation, and I highly recommend trying it with your students.Â
Sometimes we leave it hanging overnight and work on visual models to make some proofs.
Logic Puzzles
Logic puzzles are always a hit too! You can enrich and extend your math lessons with these âMath Mysteryâ logic puzzles that are the perfect challenge for 4th, 5th, and 6th grades. The puzzles are skills-based, so they integrate well with almost ANY math lesson. You can use them to supplement instruction or challenge your fast-finishers and gifted students⌠all while encouraging critical thinking about important math skills!
Three levels are included, so theyâre perfect to use for differentiation.
- Introductory logic puzzles are great for beginners (4th grade and up!)
- Advanced logic puzzles are great for students needing an extra challenge
- Extra Advanced logic puzzles are perfect for expert solvers⌠we dare you to figure these puzzles out!
Do you have a group of students who are ready for more of a fraction challenge? My well-loved fraction puzzlers are absolutely perfect for fraction enrichment. Theyâll motivate your students to excel at even the most challenging tasks!Â
Math Projects
Math projects are another way to differentiation while building critical thinking skills. Math projects hold so much learning power with their real-world connections, differentiation options, collaborative learning opportunities, and numerous avenues for cross curricular learning too.
If youâre new to math projects, I shared my best tips and tricks for using math projects in this blog post . Theyâre perfect for cumulative review, seasonal practice, centers, early finisher work, and more.
I use both concept-based math projects to focus on specific standards and seasonal math projects that integrate several skills.
Error Analysis
Finally, error analysis is always a challenging way to encourage critical thinking. When we use error analysis, we encourage students to analyze their own mistakes to prevent making the same mistakes in the future.
For my gifted students, I use error analysis tasks as an assessment when they have shown mastery of a unit during other tasks. For students in the regular classroom needing enrichment, I usually have them complete the tasks in a center or with a partner.
For students needing extra support, we complete error analysis in small groups. We go step-by-step through the concept and they are always able to eventually identify what the error is. It is so empowering to students when they finally figure out the error AND it helps prevent them from making the same error in the future!
My FREE addition error analysis is a good place to start, no matter the grade level. I show them the process of walking through the problem and how best to complete an error analysis task.
When youâre ready for more, this bundle of error analysis tasks contains more than 240 tasks to engage and enrich your students in critical thinking practice.

Mathematics
- Multiple Award Winner
- Paperback Book - $12.99
- eBook - $12.99
Description and Features
Analogies occur in life and frequently in high-stakes tests. Understanding analogies and the ability to reason analogically (reasoning used to identify, evaluate, and solve an analogy) are important problem-solving skills which are an essential part of mathematical development. The immediate benefit is to recognize and solve simple analogies. The long-term benefits are improved reasoning skills that enable students to break problems into their component parts, recognize analogies embedded in arguments, and evaluate them. The 200 analogies in this 64-page book teach students to break problems down into their component parts, making it easier to recognize familiar formats that enable students to produce solutions. These analogies are designed around the grade-appropriate standards identified by the National Council of Teaching Mathematics.
