To achieve the research objectives, the researchers formulate the following hypotheses: The frst hypothesis: There are no statistically signifcant differences at the level of signifcance (0.05) between the grades of the experimental and control groups in the performance of mental skills as a whole in the specifed level of the questionnaire. The second hypothesis: There are no statistically signifcant differences at the level of signifcance (0.05) between the scores of the control group students in the pre-test and post-mental skills. The researchers adopted the experimental method, which has the ability to control the various factors affecting the phenomenon to be studied. The community of the study consists of (506) students, divided into (6) sections. The researchers conducted the pre-test of the sample and then their main experiment on the research sample, A curriculum based on the theory of expansion and then conducted the tests of dimension to be then processed statistically by (SPSS) program.
