More Information
Logic is the way God thinks. Master Books’ Introduction to Logic curriculum for 8th-10th grade homeschool students teaches the principles of correct reasoning from the biblical worldview. Just imagine the world changer your student will become as he or she begins to think and reason the way God does!
We know that God determines the correct way to reason. He is the standard for all truth claims. In this course, students will learn about logic, if faith is contrary to reason, informal logical fallacies, and more.
Learning logical terms and principles is often like learning a foreign language. This course has been developed to help your students learn the practical understanding of logical arguments. To make the course content easier to grasp, the schedule provides worksheets and practice sheets to help students better recognize logical fallacies, as well as review weeks for the quizzes and the final.
In this highly recommended course, Dr. Jason Lisle addresses topics such as these:
- Why logic matters and who decides what is the "right" way to think?
- If two people disagree on whether something is reasonable, who is correct?
- The standard by which we judge a particular line of reasoning to be correct or incorrect?
Parents love the biblical foundation provided by Dr. Lisle and how it deepens their child’s relationship with God. Many homeschool moms report having their students take this course even if they have already completed a different logic course because of the biblical worldview it offers. Often, parents purchase this course for their own independent study or use it as a family study.

Customer Reviews
Even my 17 year old daughter has come to me with logical fallacies in the news or media she has watched during that day. I think it has helped us all think more clearly about the world around us. Doing Introduction to Logic as a group has facilitated a lot of great discussions for us and had become one of our favorite Morning Time subjects.
