Description:One day Harry finds himself giving the wrong answer in science class and begins to wonder where he has gone wrong. This reflection soon involves his classmates, who begin to think together about the nature of thinking, inquiry and knowledge. With the help of their teacher, Harry and his classmates discover rules of formal and informal logic, relational logic and hypothetical thinking—-not as ends in themselves, but as tools in helping them understand themselves and their world. Some of the ideas they begin to explore this way include education, mind, rights, religion, art, cause and effect, causes and reasons, and fallibilism. Set within a group of middle school classmates and their families, this novel offers several models of reasonable dialogue, among young people and adults. HARRY STOTTLEMEIR’S DISCOVERY was the first novel published in Philosophy for Children, and its connection with the tradition of Western philosophy is often strong. Adults with a background in philosophy will easily recognize the perennial philosophical issues raised in the story. However, no such background is necessary for young people or adults to enjoy this thought-provoking novel.Grade Range: 4-7 Target Grades: 5-6Teacher's Guide Companion Volume - PHILOSOPHICAL INQUIRY: Instructional Manual to Accompany Harry Stottlemeier's DiscoveryWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
