01 / UNDERSTAND

Here is what is happening.

Separate a claim, its evidence and the reasoning connecting them. Evidence should be relevant and traceable. An observation can support a narrow conclusion without proving a universal one. State uncertainty and consider an alternative explanation.

Pause. Make the idea your own.

Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?

You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.
02 / MAKE IT YOUR OWN

Your little investigation

What you need

Paper and this imaginary observation: one quiet reading session had fewer interruptions.

  1. Write a narrow claim about that session only.

  2. List what was observed and what was not measured.

  3. Suggest a repeat comparison before making a broader claim.

03 / CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING
