Abstract:

The researcher chose an arbitrary sample of 71 students of Zainabhigh school for girls, which is part of Bagdad Al-Resafa Directorate of Education-Second. The experimental group consist of 36 students they were taught the Islamic and Arabic Civilization subject using the reciprocal teaching strategies. The standard group consisted of 35 student who were taught the same subject but with using the traditional teaching strategy. The researcher taught both group in the first semester of 2018-2019 school year. She used Marzano’s higher order thinking test to categorize the higher thinking. This test consist of 62 section that is divided into four skills, which are (analyzing ,generating, emerging, abstracting, and evaluating). The test data analysis showed that the experimental group had higher scores than the standard group in the higher thinking test, so the researcher recommends setting up training courses to train the teachers on how to use the four skills of the reciprocal teaching strategy effectively, and to divide students in a classroom correctly. The researcher also suggested performing a study using the reciprocal teaching strategy with different variables such as direction, and motivation toward the subject being taught.
