Kids' Questions
Topic: Time-Fillers
(This idea was contributed by Kelsey)
Age Range: 5 to 11

Kids ask a lot of questions. I mean A LOT! But what happens when you are asking all of the questions? Well why don't you find out?

There is a book called "The Kids' Book of Questions" by Gregory Stock that is filled with 260 of kids' most-asked questions.

Each day, pick out a couple questions. Read them aloud and ask them to answer them truthfully in a daily journal. You will be amazed at some of the responses you will get from these kids.

At the end of the school year, have them go back and see if any of their answers have changed. It not only give the students a chance to feel important, but it also helps them put things into a new perspective.
