- Description & Features. Buy the award-winning software for the same price or less than the book! Understanding analogies and the ability to reason analogically (reasoning used to identify, evaluate, and solve an analogy) are important problem-solving skills. Problem-solving is an essential part of mathematical development. Analogies teach students to break problems down into their component parts, making it easier to recognize familiar formats that enable students to produce solutions. The Level 2 Math Analogies asks students to draw and verbalize their answers.
