"More" and "Most" Thinking Questions

For the students' independent research projects, they will be creating a "more" or "most" thinking question to research. Here are a few examples of each for guidance.

"More" Thinking Question
Questions that can be answered when you use information you already know in new situations. These types of questions may be answered after you already know something about your topic.

Examples:
- How do you classify birds?
- How do gerbils learn?
- How do students feel about different subjects in school?

"Most" Thinking Question
Questions that can be answered with you create and/or evaluate new information. These types of questions are answered by new inventions, creations, or discoveries that require a lot of knowledge about your topic.

Examples:
- How might I develop a way to protect animals in urban areas?
- How do we decide who should be the president of the school's student council?
- How might I teach other students about computers?
