Faulty reasoning

 For reading we were doing a faulty reasoning. We had to put examples and answers in the 5 boxes that were ;

Illogical / simplified  Assumption means that is Providing evidence that does not directly support the claim (Hint: There are probably other influences / factors).

Circular reasoning means Supporting a claim with the same claim Hint: Look for synonyms!) 

Over-generalization means Making a global statement when there are likely exceptions. (Hint: everybody, nobody, always

Biased argument means making a claim that is influenced by your own personal feelings or experience

Contradiction means Providing evidence that goes against the original argument.

The first activity is putting the right text quote and the reasoning to the right faulty reasons.

Next activity we did was we had to put the right 5 faulty reason in the right reason.

Lastly we had to do the faulty reasoning by our self. We had to read the book and find the right reason and put them in the 5 boxes that you think was right.
