Beginner Level
In this class we will build critical reasoning skills through games and puzzles. The kids will learn to reason and deduct solutions based on certain stipulations or outcomes. For example: if A happens, then B must be true. There are no prerequisites for the course. The instructor will read the questions out loud and hold a discussion with the students. Although the questions will become increasingly more challenging, there is no harm joining midway through the course.
