The research paper aims at the realization of the familiarization with The Effect of strategy of overlapping waves in the development of the multiple thinking by the fifth-class students / Literary branch in the subject of 'history'. To attain this goal, the researcher has formulated the following zero hypotheses: The research sample comprises (46) students intentionally selected from Al-Hasan Ibn Ali Secondary school for boys, whose students, i.e. (21 students) has formed the experimental sample. Another sample is taken from Jamal Abd-il-Nasser preparatory school; it totals (25) students forming the control group. The two groups have been subjected to a process through which they are compared to come up with the variables (the pre-tests multiple thinking and the cultivation of the parents, and the score obtained at the subject of history for the previous academic year. The tool adopted by the researcher involves the test of multiple thinking prepared by Al-Jumaili in 2014. This test comprises ten activities within the specified capabilities set by (Cleford), (fluency and flexibility, authenticity, sensitivity to problems and the realization of details and the redundancy). The researcher has used the T-test for two interrelated samples and the K-square as statistic means. The results have proved the excellence of the experimental group over the control-group students in the multiple thinking test. Moreover, there appears to be a difference statistically calculated at the level (0.5) between the two pre- and post- tests for the multiple thinking by the experimental-group students, and in the interest of the posttest. There also appears a statistically calculated difference by the control- group students. The researcher has come up with these recommendations: 1) Training courses ought to be held to train the teachers how to use modern strategies and methods in teaching of history which all develop multiple thinking. 2) The output of teaching should be improved, especially by using new strategies based upon learning through thinking especially the strategy of overlapping waves as the researcher has come up with the following proposal: 1) New strategies ought to aim at the new approaches aiming at the development of multiple thinking. 2) Strategies and new teaching patterns ought to be developed. 3) The trial of the overlapping-wave strategies and the other variables such as the final attainment, the thinking and researching as well as the habits of reasoning and memorization skills and others.
