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: if Earth had no tilt at all, what would the seasons be like?
- Predict: we're closest to the sun in January — so why isn't January the hottest up north?
- Predict before we test: does the same light warm a small bullseye patch or a wide smear more per spot?
Where it shows up in real life
- Your long, low shadow at winter noon versus your short shadow in summer
- Long bright summer evenings versus dark-by-dinner winter nights
- Opposite seasons in the news — snow somewhere while it's beach weather somewhere else
