In this science worksheet, students read two example problems that include a problem, observation, and conclusion. Students also answer 2 questions using inductive reasoning.

In this patterns and inductive reasoning worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 20 various types of problems. First, they find a pattern for each given sequence and use the pattern to show the next two terms. Then, students name two...

Working on logic in your class? Take a moment for some quick practice with this activity. Learners identify the facts and conclusions in several examples, and explain why one conclusion is flawed. Both inductive and deductive reasoning...

Young scholarsare introduced to the Pythagorean Theorem by exploring right triangles and the squares built on each side. They apply the Pythagorean Theorem to real-world problems. Students u se informal and nonformal arguments of proof...

Using inductive and deductive reasoning, geometers prove vertical angles are congruent.  They use patty paper to construct and measure vertical angles.  Then they prove corresponding angles are congruent and consider other conjectures. 

In this induction worksheet, students read word problems.  They determine the difference between inductive and deductive reasoning.  Students solve the given problem through inductive reasoning.  This one-page worksheet contains 1...

Explore the process of inductive and deductive reasoning. A collaborative activity has some groups apply an inductive approach and others a deductive approach. Through class discussion, scholars compare their processes and discuss...

Fourth graders use inductive reasoning to find algebraic patterns in geometric figures. They use technology (i.e., calculators, computers) and manipulatives to discover number patterns involving geometric concepts. They solve concrete...

Students use logical arguments and inductive reasoning to make or disprove conjectures. After observing a teacher led demonstration, students discover that the deductive process narrows facts to a few possible conclusions. In groups,...

Greet this resource like an old friend. An interactive has users investigate the number of handshakes required for a group to greet each member. A set of challenge questions ensures that learners have a solid understanding of the...

Introduce pupils to the two types of reasoning, inductive and deductive. Classmates work in pairs or small groups to learn the difference between the two and apply these reasonings to develop valid conclusions. 

In this pattern and inductive reasoning worksheet, students find the pattern for a given sequence. They name different ways to continue a pattern. Students draw the next figure in a given sequence. This one-page worksheet contains 20...

Identify and analyze deductive reasoning through genuine texts. Compare cultural practices and beliefs about national ID cards. Look for another example of a deductive argument and prepare a brief paragraph analyzing the audience,...
