Expanding the Intellectual Thinking of Elementary School Students by Teaching Them to Think Philosophically

Abstract

This article highlights the issues of expanding the intellectual thinking of elementary school students by teaching them to think philosophically. After all, the development of the ability to think as a way of perceiving existence and reality is a product-high result of the thinking process. Thinking is a life-giving force. That is, a person is alive through thinking. Without thought, a person becomes a dead body incapable of creation and growth. By teaching students to think independently, to create their creative ideas, to form critical thinking skills in relation to events, philosophical thinking is formed in them, and their mental abilities and intellectual potential are further expanded.
