Description & Features

Critical Thinking teaches your child to think logically, present well-developed arguments, and see through unsupported arguments. Book One helps students develop the fundamentals of logic, argumentation, and critical reading.

Easy-to-understand explanations of concepts are followed by examples and real-life, often humorous, discussion problems. Children learn to identify valid and invalid claims and arguments, sufficient and insufficient evidence, fact and opinion, generalizations, emotional arguments, inferences, deductions, and more.

Instruction/Answer Guide - Sold Separately
***Highly Recommended***
Includes goals, teaching suggestions, and answers. No previous background in logic is required to teach these activities.

Product Review Page Product Reviews & Awards

"A former student of mine is now a lawyer in a prestigious law firm. She told me that it was our discussions in Critical Thinking that got her started on logic and first interested in studying law." -Janice, Rochester, MN

"I like Critical Thinking because my students like it. They like to argue, debate, and make their points known. I enjoy the enthusiastic way they learn to use evidence to support their arguments logically rather than jumping to conclusions…and it's a rich source of topics to discuss." -Dean, Lima, OH

"The most practical and usable starting place for learning informal logic." -Nathaniel, Muscatine, IA

"The faculty at Boylan identified critical thinking skills as an area of concern in our curriculum....We did a search for materials and your company came up repeatedly. We ordered a set of your Critical Thinking books and reviewed the materials. We were very impressed and are planning on implementing the course this fall." -Louise, via the Internet

"I particularly like Critical Thinking Books One and Two. This is a fun course in logic that will challenge parents too." -Cathy Duffy, Christian Home Educators' Curriculum Manual, Greensboro, NC

"I have used Critical Thinking with my children with excellent results. This book is a must." -Parent, via the Internet

"Recommended." -The Well-Trained Mind

"Critical Thinking Book One teaches logic and argumentation in a simple form. It also teaches how to recognize propaganda and reasoning errors. I have used this book with excellent results." -Customer, via the Internet
