We have worded the pages so you can easily choose to eliminate the back page.  Students might show the answer to their problem instead of writing the answer in sentence format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have created five different logic problems with room for students to show their work and a place for students to write their answer in complete sentences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ideas for using these problems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Logical thinking problems can be a good opportunity to encourage group discussions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let students work with a partner or in small groups. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might also encourage students to use manipulatives. For problems such as these the manipulatives might even be note cards with names that students move around as they solve the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The five included problems will give your students multiple opportunities to work on logical thinking problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size has-very-light-gray-color has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color\">You can download these logical thinking problems here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner456\/wp-content\/pdf\/math\/problem%20solving\/logical%20thinking.pdf\">Problem Solving<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color has-light-green-cyan-background-color\">You might also be interested in the following free resources:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner456\/problem-solving-strategy-making-using-a-table\/\">Problem Solving Using a Table<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecurriculumcorner.com\/thecurriculumcorner456\/the-answer-is-math-problem-solving-center\/\">The answer is&hellip; Problem Solving Center<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-normal-font-size\">As with all of our resources, The Curriculum Corner creates these for free classroom use.
