Herring Mysteries develops students' inferential and deductive thinking
skills for more effective reading, listening, and logical thinking. The activities also
encourage creative rainstorming 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.
Includes tips, suggestions, answers, a sample questioning session, and graphic
organizer sheets to keep track of deductions.
