THE 5-UNIT SCAFFOLDED CURRICULUM ROADMAP

UNIT 1: SPOT BAD ARGUMENTS (5 Packs)

Learn to spot weak logic before accepting a claim.

• Slippery Slope - The dramatic "domino effect" scare tactic.

• Hasty Generalisation - Making huge rules from a single story.

• Anecdotal Fallacy - Why "it happened to my friend" isn't proof.

• Gambler's Fallacy - Why past streaks don't change real odds.

• False Cause - Blaming one event on another just because they happened together.

UNIT 2: EXPOSE CHEAP DISTRACTIONS (5 Packs)

Catch people dodging questions and shifting the focus.

• Red Herring - Changing the subject when losing an argument.

• Straw Man - Twisting someone's words to knock them down easily.

• Ad Hominem Attack - Using insults and name-calling to dodge the topic.

• You Too (Tu Quoque) - Pointing fingers back at someone else.

• Moving the Goalpost - Shifting the rules so nobody can ever win.

UNIT 3: RESIST PEER PRESSURE (5 Packs)

Build the confidence to think independently and resist crowd pressure.

• Bandwagon Effect - Doing something just because "everyone else is."

• Appeal to Authority - Believing a claim just because a celebrity said it.

• Appeal to Emotion - Using fear, guilt, or pity instead of facts.

• Appeal to Force - When threats and intimidation replace real logic.

• Appeal to Tradition - Saying "that's how we've always done it."

UNIT 4: UNMASK TRICK QUESTIONS (5 Packs)

Spot rigged arguments and forced traps.

• False Dilemma - Forcing a fake "either/or" choice when other options exist.

• Loaded Question - Trick questions rigged before you even answer.

• False Equivalence - Unfairly comparing "apples to oranges."

• Circular Reasoning - Repeating the claim instead of giving proof.

• No True Scotsman - Shifting definitions to exclude anyone who disagrees.

UNIT 5: OUTSMART YOUR MIND (4 Packs)

Master internal bias and decision-making traps.

• Confirmation Bias - Only seeing evidence that proves what you already believe.

• Sunk Cost Fallacy - Refusing to quit a bad plan because you've spent time on it.

• Appeal to Ignorance - Claiming something is true because "you can't prove it isn't."

• Genetic Fallacy - Judging an idea purely by who said it rather than the facts.

WHY TEACHERS & PARENTS LOVE THESE PACKS

Most logic resources are dry definitions and matching worksheets. These packs teach through storytelling and humor.

Every single pack follows a proven 3-step sequence:

1. Real History Disaster: A gripping, multi-page illustrated true historical event showing the real-world chaos the fallacy caused (e.g., NASA's Challenger disaster, the 1913 Monte Carlo casino crash, Thalidomide).

2. Original Comic & Breakdown: Duchess and Bruno bring the concept into everyday life, followed by a clear "Break It Down" analysis.

3. Hands-On Practice Sheets: Code Breaker puzzles, real-world media analysis, Draw Your Own Comic challenges, and complete Answer Keys.

✦ Hidden Gizmo Hunt: A sneaky character hidden in every pack that turns learning into a game kids ask to play!
