Driving Questions
Look at the three Driving Questions below and in your groups, decide which question you would like to answer. Each group can answer the same question or each group can answer different questions. The choice is yours!
- How can we show others how common items were made in a fun and educational way?
- How can we take old clothes and turn them into something that can be worn again?
- How can we create a step-by-step guide to help young and old learners make something fun?
Thinking Routine: Elaboration Game
What will your group do or make to answer your Driving Question? Follow the prompts below to draw or write out some ideas with your group. Remember to download or save your work for future use!
Think about the question you’ve chosen for a couple of minutes and think about how you can expand on your ideas. The aim of this exercise is to get you thinking and working together to create ideas. Everything is possible here!
Write down a few words or phrases related to the question or topic.
Share your list with the group and write down words or phrases that others mention that you didn’t list.
Choose five words or phrases and write them below.
Take one word or phrase and go around the group. Each person adds or elaborates on the word/phrase and then passes this new word/phrase to the next person. This continues until 5 or all group members have added an elaboration point. Write the final phrase here. Complete this for a few of the other words in the third step.
