Teach It Back

Ages 8–11 · 10 minutes · You’ll need: A timer, or this device

Explaining something is the best test of whether you really understand it. Your child is the teacher; you are the curious beginner.

From our book Steady, chapter 4: From information to wisdom.

How it works

Your child teaches you something in one minute. You play the curious beginner and ask “why?” and “how?”. Gaps become “let’s find out”.
