Isabel the Inventor and later Yolanda the Yarn Spinner introduce Divergent Thinking which involves the upper three levels (analysis, synthesis, evaluation). New insights and thoughts, which were not a part of the original content, result. These three levels often overlap each other. Divergent thinkers are able to list many responses to questions or brainstorm many ideas. They are also very flexible thinkers with original, off-beat, and humorous responses. These students can elaborate or expand upon an idea, and sometimes display an advanced vocabulary.

      Max the Magician introduces Visual/Spatial Perception with mental manipulation of shapes. Students with good visual/spatial perception demonstrate a good memory for detail. They may not be as verbal as their classmates, but enjoy activities involving hands-on building of three-dimensional objects from two-dimensional drawings. These students often respond best to visual images such as graphic organizers and instructional computer programs.

      Sybil the Scientist using analysis and Dudley the Detective using  logic introduce Convergent Thinking is comprised of the lower three levels (knowledge, comprehension, application). Information learned at the first and second levels is brought together at the third level and applied. Convergent thinkers intuitively see the correct answer. They tend to see the interrelationships between clues and defer judgment until all clues have been collected. Many times they will display outside knowledge about a topic that will help them discover the correct solution.

      Jordan the Judge will help with Evaluative Thinking. Evaluative thinkers are able to evaluate and offer a solution that is based on valid considerations. They are able to see more than one viewpoint, understand considerations and support decisions or opinions
