The prompts (many with option answers) are formatted as brief stories, exercises, poems, and activities and are designed so kids can use the same thinking skill sets that are essential in making everyday decisions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhether the prompts pose silly questions, \"Would you rather bathe a gorilla or take an elephant for a walk?\" or practical ones, \"What's the best way to express your opinion?\" they are all crafted to spur children to think hard and sensibly so they can make levelheaded decisions and defend their thinking in a stress-free think forum environment. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe intention is for students to take the essence of something they've learned from a prompt and adapt it, stretch it, and use it to help solve a problem or make a tough decision. Every prompt comes with guidance, explanations, and suggestions so educators can clarify why certain options or decisions are better than others, and respond to thinking choices and decisions students may have made.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lin Josephson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1475840802\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781475840803\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rowman \u0026amp; Littlefield Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/18\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.34d","brand":"Lin Josephson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48458602971391,"sku":"9781475840803","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a7e2fbdb-f08a-4abb-964e-5e2c88e5dd87.jpg?v=1777405452","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/making-everyday-choices-lin-josephson-9781475840803","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
