Abstract: Logical mistakes found in the written works of students are shown not only at the level of individual sentences, but also at the level of the text; they are considered as part of a meaningful, verbal and grammatical mistakes. The examples proved that the number of speech errors is due to the violation of the law of logic and the violation of linguistic norms. Violations of the laws of logic and methods of logical construction, the inability to establish links between parts of the text and wrong interpretation of the thought pattern leads to syntactic ambiguity in the works of the students. The lack of classification of logical errors in the traditional system of evaluation of essays creates difficulties in determining the type of error and leads to the underestimation by teachers of the exercises on the prevention of logical errors. The article highlights the contradiction between the necessity of formation of logical thinking skills and insufficient development of this issue, which negatively affects the quality of education. The detailed description of the subgroups of logical errors will allow to correlate and unify the traditional criteria for evaluation of written works with the criteria used in the Unified State Exam. This will help the teacher to choose effective methods of preventing the logical-text, logical-linguistic and logical-grammatical errors.
