| The Discovery of Deduction: An Introduction to Formal Logic
will welcome you into the fascinating realm of formal, deductive logic.
Formal logic studies how an argument is put together—the form or
structure of an argument.
Geared towards students
as young as eighth grade, it is intended to emphasize the practical and real-world
application of soundly structured, deductive logic. Using methods such
as Socratic dialogue, ample discussion, and integration of other
subjects, it teaches the ways in which these dialectic students learn
best.

| Young teens will encounter many false arguments both in their
youth and as they grow into a fully adult world. From billboards to
college professors to politicians, false types of arguments are used
everywhere. Learn to discern what arguments are valid and which are not
with the
twenty-eight informal fallacies covered in The Art of Argument!
|
| |
| Seeking to give students the tools and knowledge to build strong
arguments, this book teaches the argument-discovery method called
"Common Topics", which presents a list of lines of argument that allows
you to discover the possible arguments for your subject. Terms and
concepts from the study of logic and rhetoric are explored, as well as
the ancient Greeks and Romans who came up with them. Exercises feature
room to answer, explain, describe, list, practice, brainstorm,
identify, and follow-up on a variety of questions that will keep
students engaged and using their brains!

| Beginning at the beginning, the beginning chapters focus on the elements that make up a poem. Real poems used to illustrate the
concepts and are as exercises. Chapters end with a page of activities and a list of vocabulary (many
terms are bolded in context within the lesson). Concepts covered
include elements of poetry such as images, metaphor, symbols, word,
rhythm, shape, and tone; the history of poetry, including the history
of form, movements, genres, verse forms, open verse, and case studies
on Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman; and application ideas for growing
student interest in poetry.
