Explain what is meant by inductive reasoning, and then provide an example of how you would use it on a child who is misbehaving in your class.
What will be an ideal response?
Inductive reasoning means rather than just telling a child not to do something, you go further and explain why they should not do it because of how it affects other people. If a child in my room was being rude and loud, I would tell that child to quiet down because other children might really be trying hard to listen to other things and they cannot do it with all the noise. They may not learn as much, or they may become angry or sad if the loud child does not quiet down. I would also explain that continuing that behavior is hurting the child’s friends.
