Session 9:  Promoting Discussion

Name:

Consider the following student responses to the question “What can you tell me about things that float?”  How might you respond to each student response?  Keep in mind that there is no “right answer” here.  Your answers should be 3 or 4 sentences long.

 “Light things float.”

 “The moculas they’re moving.  But then they stop.  And when they stop, it floats.”

 “My uncle has a boat.  And when we go fishing we catch lotsa fish but my brother doesn’t like to  fish ‘cause he thinks they’re gross.”
