7^th – 8^th Grades

Whether or not you have a child in this stage of life, you were there once yourself, and we guess that you were much like us when you were somewhere between ages of 11 and 14. If this premise is true, then we can conclude that you, like us (and like our own children) became argument oriented during this season. The good news is, first, that you are not alone, and second, that this season provides just the right opportunity to teach students what makes a good argument (and a poor one) and how they can learn to identify and understand the arguments that are presented to them everywhere (i.e., at home, on the radio, at church, in conversations, books, movies, the news, and more). We call this season Logic School during which we train students in the art of argumentation through logical thinking skills.
