The villagers came to the conclusion that the woman was a witch because of their observations. Discuss whether this is inductive or deductive reasoning, or both, and why. Next, Sir Bedevere (the knight who is asking why the villagers believe the woman to be a witch” hypothesizes that if the woman weighs the same as a duck, she must be made of wood, and therefore she must be a witch. The villagers (in their feeble attempt) try to test this hypothesis by weighing the woman next to the duck. Discuss whether or not this is inductive or deductive reasoning, or both, and why.
