Below, this lesson plan offers various <em>categories<\/em> of questions, and some questions in each category.<em> Be sure to spend time before the lesson internalizing what you want to explore with your students, and be open to their own interests!&nbsp;<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Warm-Up Question&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How does the weather affect the way we feel and behave?&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Recommendation:<\/span> Give silent thinking time. Then, have students turn-and-talk to a student next to them about what they think, encouraging student to give reasons for their opinions.
