INDUCTIVE REASONING

PIAGET’S FORMAL STAGE

DEDUCTIVE REASONING

Uses Piaget’s CONCRETE stage of

thinking

INDUCTIVE REASONING:

“I” figure out smaller pieces of information,

INDUCTIVE REASONING:… and put them

together, making patterns, and associations…

INDUCTIVE REASONING:

…to come to a conclusion of the whole topic or

situation.

INDUCTIVE REASONING:“I” figure out the

smaller clues to find words that complete

the whole crossword.

INDUCTIVE REASONING:“I” figure out the

numbers using patterns to complete the

whole Sudoku.

INDUCTIVE REASONING

Uses the highest level of ABSTRACT

thinking

INDUCTIVE REASONING:

“I” put together the smaller pieces of

information…

INDUCTIVE REASONING:

…to see the whole big picture and solution.

Using ‘clues’, questions, facts

to make an ‘educational guess’ of the

bigger picture.

DEDUCTIVE REASONING

Uses Piaget’s CONCRETE stage of

thinking

DEDUCTIVE REASONING:You are given the

situation, big topic or problem first …

DEDUCTIVE REASONING:

…as you think through smaller steps and

questions to show you understand the topic.

Look at the picture to answer these questions:1. Where did this take place?2. What is the Civil Rights Movement?3. Why are they marching?

DEDUCTIVE REASONING:

You are given the big topic with smaller

tasks to think through and understand.

DEDUCTIVE REASONING:

How would a doctor use deductive

reasoning?

You are given the big topic or situation first…

…now think through smaller

questions to find an

understanding

DEDUCTIVE REASONING:How would a detective use

deductive reasoning?

INDUCTIVE REASONING

Bloom’s KNOWLEDGE

level

Brainstorm! List as many musical instruments as you can with a

friend.

Bloom’s COMPREHENSION

level

Next: Circle only the instruments

that can be played with both hands

and mouth.

Bloom’s APPLICATION

level

Now: Categorize the instruments

By putting a letter by each:

(H) = horn(P) = percussion(S)= strings(O) = other…..AND SO ON !

Bloom’s ANALYSISlevel

Again, break down into smaller categories by size OR if they are portable by

putting a new letter by each:

(H) = horn (M,med., P, portable)(P) = percussion (L. large.,NP not

portable) …..AND SO ON !

Bloom’s SYNTHESIS

level

FINALLY, rewrite your words, organizing them in

specific and labeled categories.

You must have the circled ones (played with both hands and mouth) on one side and the

non-circled on the other side.

Bloom’s EVALUATION

level

LASTLY, count how many instruments you have in all and write that total on

your paper.•Count how many

CATEGORIES you have. •Choose TWO instruments (one from each side) and explain why

you think they are the best.

LET’S FLIPTO DEDUCTIVE

REASONINGNOW

Research the different types of

musical instruments.

Describe several in writing.

1. How are they different?2. Are there some that are harder to

play than others?3. How does size of the instrument

affect performance?4. Explore how the levels of Bloom’s

taxonomy can be applied to the description of these instruments.
