Three experts were selected to verify the 'Code of Analysis in Critical Thinking Skills' instrument that has been developed. The experts consist of Malay curriculum specialists, content analysis specialists and Malay teacher‟s specialist. Instruments that have been modified by these experts are then tested by the reliability of two Malay language teachers before being used in the actual study. Analysis of the main categories in the three textbooks indicates that activity and assessment of reading skills are leads towards Collecting and Using Information Skills which are 49.1% and 64.3% respectively. The Inferential Instruction Skill ranked second the highest; activity is 46.8% and assessment is 32.1%.
