Red Herring Mysteries (previously A Case of Red Herrings)
A Case of the Red Herrings
Solving Mysteries through Critical Questioning
Students learn to think beyond the literal meaning!
Grades: 4th - 12th+
Subject: Critical Thinking
A Case of Red Herrings develops students' inferential and deductive thinking skills for more effective reading, listening, and logical thinking. The activities also encourage creative brainstorming and flexible thinking.
Given a seemingly contradictory statement, students must practice good thinking strategies and formulate astute "yes/no" questions to help them discover the solution to each mystery. Resolutions are often funny, adding appeal to the activities.
Teaching Support
Includes tips, suggestions, answers, a sample questioning session, and graphic organizer sheets to keep track of deductions.
