Product Description

A Case of the Red Herrings
Solving Mysteries through Critical Questioning

Students learn to think beyond the literal meaning!

Grades: 4th - 6th
Subject: Critical Thinking
ISBN: 1-60144-162-2
Activities: 64
Pages: 69

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.
