Hasty Generalisation Question Pack - Free Download

In revolutionary Russia, the Bolsheviks decided that anyone who owned a cow was a greedy enemy of the people. That one detail - a single cow - was enough to get your home raided and your family destroyed.

It didn't matter if you were poor. It didn't matter if you were a good neighbour who fed people during famines. You owned something, so you were the enemy. 5 million people were forced from their homes based on a label that took about a second to apply.

That's the Hasty Generalisation: taking a tiny sample and drawing a sweeping conclusion - then treating it as fact. Your kids do it daily. At school. Online. In every "all teachers are boring" and "they're all the same" they'll ever be handed. This free Question Pack teaches them to catch it.

What's in the free Question Pack:

• Discussion and research questions that get kids arguing about the Bolshevik Revolution story - the productive kind of arguing
• A guided walk through how "us versus them" reduced a nation of millions to two categories - and what that sweeping label cost the people who didn't fit
• An answer sheet, so you can run it at the dinner table or in a classroom with zero prep

The deal, stated plainly

We teach people to spot manipulation, so it would be a bit rich to hide ours. This pack is free because it's the best advertisement we have. You hand over your email, we send the download, and every so often we'll email you about new comics, book and our card game. Unsubscribe the moment we get boring. 

One email. Check your spam folder - our goodies have a talent for landing there. 

What the free pack doesn't include

The fully illustrated Russian Revolution story. The Duchess & Bruno comic. The Spot-the-Fallacy hunt through real ads and headlines. The Code Breaker, the Draw Your Own Comic page, and the hidden Gizmo kids go feral trying to find.

All of that lives in the Hasty Generalisation Activity Pack - a 20-page printed booklet, rated 5.0 by teachers and parents on Etsy and TPT. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "My kids absolutely adore the characters and story! It reminds us of horrible histories. I haven't found anything like this pack before." - Sandra

It's one of 24. Every pack takes one fallacy, one historical disaster and one comic - and turns them into a kid who is very hard to fool.
