Instructional Ideas
- Cluster the questions that involve similar topics and have groups select one cluster to research
Classroom Considerations
- Because many of the materials available are inappropriate for this age group, the instructor would need to spend considerable time curating resources appropriate for their class
Pros
- A rationale for the activity and a template for the chart are included in the resource
Cons
- A filter would need to be provided so that kids access age-appropriate materials
