   • Begin with a Question. Starting with a question is the most straightforward foray into a subject. What do you want to explore and discuss? It shouldn’t be a question you can answer with a ‘yes’ or a ‘no.’
   • Create a Foundation. Learners cannot think critically if they do not have the information they need. Begin any exercise with a review of related data which ensures they can recall facts pertinent to the topic.
   • Consult the Classics. Classical literary works are a perfect launchpad for exploring great thinking. Use them for specific lessons on character motivation, plot predictions, and themes.
   • Create a Country. This could be a tremendous project-based learning scenario about learning what makes a country. In the process, learners experience history, geography, politics, and more.
