A question for the whole room
One story to open. A room full of ideas to test.
Ready in three steps
- Open the story.Read and try the first pages together.
- Pause for a prediction.At the story’s question, read its choices aloud. Invite a vote and ask, “What makes you think that?”
- Run it. Watch. Wonder.Choose the class’s prediction, run the experiment, and compare what happened with your guesses.
Different guesses are welcome. The experiment gives everyone something to rethink.
Something to put on paper
A one-page prediction and observation sheet. No answers included.
After the experiment: discussion notes
Talk about what happened
- Predict how many map spots fit the first two distance-rings. Then add satellites one at a time and watch how each new clue changes the possibilities.
- A satellite measures distance from how long its signal took. Predict what happens to your location if a signal is slowed down by bouncing off a building.
- Three circles cross at one point in flat ground. Predict why finding your height in the air would need a fourth satellite.
Where it shows up in real life
- The 'you are here' blue dot wobbling on a phone map in a parking lot.
- A car navigation voice rerouting you after a missed turn.
- A fitness watch drawing the path you ran or biked.
