A Logical Conclusion

Barn Puzzle
Printable Game Board

OBJECTIVE: Students will develop logical thinking skills.

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Getting Started: ( 0 = Grows it, X = Does not grow it )
  2. Read the first fact. Mark a large 0 under Farmer Scott's name beside the vegetable he grows (Kale).
  3. BEFORE YOU GO TO FACT #2, put a large X under Farmer Scott's name beside all the vegetables he does not grow (broccoli, lettuce, cabbage, and spinach).
  4. EACH FARMER GROWS ONLY ONE CROP, so put a large X in each appropriate box under the other farmer's names to show that they do not grow the vegetable Farmer Scott grows (Kale).
  5. Now you have marks under all five farmer's names showing if they grow kale.
  6. Now you're ready to do the same for Fact #2. Have Fun!

FACTS:

  1. Farmer Scott grows kale, but does not grow broccoli, lettuce, cabbage, or spinach.
  2. Farmer Young grows spinach, but does not grow broccoli, lettuce, or cabbage.
  3. Farmer Williams does not grow broccoli or cabbage, but he grows lettuce.
  4. Farmer Small grows broccoli, but does not cabbage.
