The researcher prepared the research tool represented in the Imaginative thinking test in the science material, as it consists of (15) test items of the multiplechoice type, and its validity, reliability and psychometric characteristics were verified. After the end of the experiment, the researcher applied the Imaginative thinking test to the two research groups. After analyzing the results statistically using the T-test for two independent samples, the research results resulted in the strategy of the back and back having a positive effect on the Imaginative thinking of the students of the fifth grade in the science material, since it is more effective than the method of habituality and based on its dependence, the result was reached from the presentation of the recommendations and proposals in the fourth chapter, which will be presented in the fourth chapter.
