Granite School District Intended Learnng Outcomes (ILO's) for mathematics have all elementary grades working on the ability to reason mathematically. The goal is for students to "draw logical conclusions." Introducing students to many forms of problem solving helps to teach this concept. Logic Line-ups are a fun and creative way for students to use reasoning skills. > >
 * Logic Line-ups:** Shape Line-Ups
 * Team mates stand (usually in groups of 4).
 * Teacher reads the first clue.
 * Students solve the clue - checking for agreement from all team members
 * Students move into the correct order.
 * Teacher reads next clue, and students line up in order. (This continues until all clues have been read.)
 * Teacher selects one team to share their logic.
