Misleading arguments, emotional manipulation, and social pressure don’t wait until adulthood to show up. They’re happening right now, in conversations with friends, in the media your kids consume, and in the arguments they’ll face about what they believe and why.
Most kids aren’t ready. Yours will be.
Clear Thinking Essentials systematically trains your student to recognize 36 logical fallacies through discovery-based learning. They’ll encounter faulty reasoning in a scenario first, wrestle with what’s wrong, and only then learn the proper name and definition. This is how concepts stick: not through memorization, but through genuine understanding.
"By the end of this curriculum, your student will be spotting fallacies in everyday conversations, advertisements, and debates with a confidence that surprises both of you."
If your student isn't thinking more clearly and independently by the end of this curriculum, you get your money back.
Spot the Faulty Logic
Students read a real-world scenario and try to identify what's wrong before they learn anything. This discovery approach activates critical thinking and makes concepts memorable.
Learn the New Fallacy
After wrestling with the example, students learn the proper academic term, including Latin pronunciations. We respect your student's intelligence while explaining what each fallacy is clearly.
Understand the Psychology
Students learn why people use this fallacy, when they're likely to encounter it, and exactly where the reasoning breaks down.
See It Again, Then Own It
A second example reinforces the concept. Then students narrate what they've learned in their own words and create their own example, the Charlotte Mason way.
36 Weekly Lessons
Progressive lessons covering 36 logical fallacies, carefully sequenced from concrete to abstract. Early success builds confidence for later challenges.
Immersive Assessments
No multiple choice. Students identify fallacies in realistic conversations, just like they'll need to in real life. Short assessments every four lessons, cumulative reviews every twelve.
Complete Answer Keys
Detailed explanations for every assessment that double as discussion starters. Use them to guide deeper conversations about why each argument fails.
Zero Prep for You
Open-and-go. No additional materials, no teacher background in logic required. If you can read and have a conversation, you can teach this curriculum.
One short session per week. Lessons are modular and self-contained, so you have total freedom to speed up, slow down, or take breaks whenever life happens. Designed for a standard 36-week academic year, but entirely flexible.
Logic isn’t a luxury skill. It’s foundational. Teaching logical fallacies to young people isn’t about making them argumentative. It’s about giving them a skill they’ll use for life. When kids can spot faulty reasoning, they become better readers, stronger writers, more thoughtful friends, and future adults who can navigate a complex world with confidence.
This curriculum respects your student’s intelligence. Real names. Real concepts. Real intellectual respect. Watch them light up when they recognize fallacies in commercials, debates, and even their own thinking. That’s the moment logic becomes more than a lesson. It becomes a lens.
Charlotte Mason-inspired resources for the curious family.
36 weeks to clearer thinking, stronger reasoning, and real confidence.
