The lesson “Recognizing More Than One Side to a Discussion” works with children’s critical thinking ability to enable them to explain that controversial issues have multiple perspectives. Each child will analyze a newspaper article, using critical thinking skills to answer questions. 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 9-11 years, and is the 6th lesson in the 2nd Year “Critical Response to New Information” unit.
