Actually "Holmesian Deduction" is inductive reasoning (rather than deductive reasoning). See chart below

During class today (Monday), you will be completing the Holmes & Watson puzzler worksheet that corresponds to a Powerpoint presentation I am giving in class.

For Friday...
The so-called English Whodunit Unit Exam will cover The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Hound of the Baskervilles, W.H. Auden's "The Guilty Vicarage," Ronald Knox's "Ten Commandments..." and the other whodunit material we've covered in the past two weeks.

I highly advise you to consult the following document:

I will collect the LRJs on Friday in order to grade them during the exam. You have three due: Curious Incident #1 and Hound of the Baskervilles #1 and #2.

Again, the IRP materials are all due on Thursday, December 20. A2 students may also turn those in on December 18 during the exam time, if desired.
