The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 43rd lesson in the 1st Year “Critical Thinking Sessions” unit.
