This question would be a great
conversation starter in any early childhood classroom. Asking children to
explain why they chose one character over the other will reinforce language and
reasoning, two foundational skills vital for interpersonal problem-solving.
I hope it spurs many animated
conversations. I'd love to hear about the classroom discussions that evolve
from it. Please share them!
Ways to apply the question
include:
1-Morning Question
2-Journal Entry During A Fairy Tale
Unit
3-Turn and Talk
4-Large Group Discussion
If there is a social issue in your
classroom, this could be a gentle way of talking about excluding classmates.
Target Questions:
How do you think Goldilocks or Red
Riding Hood would feel if you chose not to play with them? How would you feel?
5-Small Group Discussion
6-Story Prompt: After students
answer the question they can draw a picture of the activity and describe other
games they played with the character.
What other
ways did you use the question?
