BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Gather a few things.
This sheet and crayons or a pencil.
One useful question
“Which part is an invention, and which part could we investigate?”
HOW IT GOES
- Draw a unicorn designed for an imaginary place: a snowy forest, a cloud town or your own world.
- Label three features and explain what each is for.
- Write one thing you know, one thing you are imagining and one thing you would like to learn.
Make it gentler
Draw a creature and tell a grown-up one question.
Add a little stretch
Compare a feature with a real animal using a grown-up-selected book.
A good place to stop
Choose one question to explore together later.
