Social Situation Short #5: Smart Guess

There are all sorts of guesse –silly, witty, educated, completely random, wild, wacky, and smart. Science Guy Brad, our lovable and silly social scientist, shares the secret formula for making a smart guess. Every formula has parts or ingredients. To make a smart guess, you add what you see and hear, what you smell and touch, plus what your brain already knows or remembers, plus what you notice about how you and others are thinking and feeling. Smart guesses happen when we use the formula! Two thinking-based lesson plans (thinksheets) are included to help students reflect, encourage discussions, and extend the learning. The first is designed for younger students who need more support thinking to understand the concepts. The second is for older students or when teaching more in depth about the concepts introduced in the videos.
