Generalization - a broad statement about a group, category, or trend, based on facts & numerous example. Often clue words such as most, all, sometimes, always, & never identify generalizations.
Remember: generalizations may be classified as valid ( supported by the text or story ) or faulty ( not supported by the text or story)
