What educators are saying
Great addition to my classroom. Students often struggle remembering the academic vocab, so I am glad to have this up on my walls now.
I used this in a gallery walk activity and my students loved it! I also had groups play against each other trying to match the examples to the correct fallacy and they had a ton of fun.
