dovrar Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Hello all, I am trying to figure out if there is such a thing as a "gentle approach" to formal logic. Right now dd is working on Venn-Perplexors and Perplexors and I've thrown in Singapore Math's CWP. However, I know that none of this is formal logic. Any ideas for what to do next?

Poke Salad Annie Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I don't have an answer for you, but I am hoping to find the same.

MorningGlory Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I like the Blast Off with Logic series (Logic Countdown, Logic Liftoff, and Orbiting with Logic). They are available from Rainbow Resource and are relatively inexpensive. They also have teacher ideas in the front of each book. HTH!

Ida Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I was also going to suggest the Blast Off with Logic series. Very gentle, but good stuff in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
