Questions during the brainstorming phase

• What do you think the answer could be?
• Why do you think that?
• Can you explain your reasoning?
• What other possibilities could there be?

Questions during the first (fictional) explanation

• Does this answer seem believable to you?
• What makes you think it is true or false?
• What evidence would support or contradict this explanation?
• Does this explanation make sense logically?

Questions during the second (scientific) explanation

• Does this answer seem more convincing than the first one? Why?
• What clues helped you determine which answer is more credible?
• How does this explanation compare with what you thought initially?
