Logic and Reasoning Teacher Resources

Students discover the functions of different types of bags. In this product design instructional activity, students discuss they types of bags that people use and then create their own bags for their own purposes.

In this identification of sentence errors worksheet, learners choose the form of the sentence that is grammatically correct.  Students have 10 minutes to complete 15 questions in this SAT practice worksheet.

Students use Venn diagrams in order to classify different objects and numbers. They then use "Venn Diagram Shape sorter" applets on the computer.

Young scholars critically follow a chain of reasoning to devise a decent problem solving technique to be applied to a reasonable problem. They also examine how to use logical arguments.

Students problem solve logic problems. They complete a worksheet using dice as a manipulative. They decide on a problem solving strategy, solve the problem, and write up the solution.

Fifth graders classify blocks according to their attributes. In this math lesson, 5th graders will identify attributes of blocks, sort them, then form the groups into a Venn Diagram, and write ratios using the attributes.

Young scholars develop a strategy to win the game. Charlie Taylor is trying to get his engine built for the Wright Brothers before Charles Manly gets his done for Samuel Langley. The person who completes the most boxes is the person who...

Fourth graders read Mary's problem and make sure that they examine it. After some discussion, let the class work on the problem in their groups. They then take turns in putting a picture of their arrangement on the board.

Students discover techniques that are used to spread propaganda. They define what propaganda is and how it can be used in both a positive and negative manner. They produce an ad campaign for product.

Students work in groups or alone to solve the problem. They use a systematic approach to get all possible answers. They report back to the class with solutions. They may extend their studying using a crate with room for 9 bottles.

Third graders focus on developing a systematic approach to problem solving while working on a problem that requires them to determine possible outcomes. They use a pegboard as a manipulative in this problem.

Students are able to assess a problem and use systematic methods to solve the problem. They also find out all the possible outcomes for a sequence of events using tree diagrams.

Students interpret information and results in context while using words and symbols to generalize patterns. They use symmetry and angle properties of polygons to solve practical problems and identifying invariant properties under...

Sixth graders predict the outcome of a simple probability experiment, test it and explain the result by using problem solving strategies to explore situations mathematically. They then play a few games informally where students play in...

Students devise a strategy to solve problems that is done in a systematic and mathematical fashion. The finding of the unknown value is the focus of the lesson. To solve linear equations proficiently is the skill of the lesson.

Students and teacher discuss square windows and their symmetry. Students work on the problem given and discuss any difficult ideas. They work in groups to use a systematic approach to get all possible answers.

Students read, review, and write about the presidential inauguration as it appears in the media. They use local local and national newspapers to gain information about the inauguration. Students develop their own editorial on the...

Learn how logic and reasoning play a part in everyday thinking, and how deductive and inductive reasoning leads investigators to conclusions.

Have you ever wondered why manhole covers are round? Believe it or not, there is a logical, mathematical reason. See if you can figure it out in this NCTM Math Challenge for Families activity. A one-page activity with suggested life...

NZMaths is a New Zealand teacher resource that provides lesson plans for students in algebra, geometry, measurement, numbers, statistics, logic and reasoning.

Spanish content. An extensive compilation of logic and reasoning problems approved by MENSA. Problems are arranged according to difficulty. Each problem is linked to it's solution. A terrific resource for extention and supplemental...
