Teacher: "Good morning! I have a question for you. Imagine if all the trees in our city disappeared overnight. What is the ONE biggest problem we would face immediately? Is it A) No more shade on a hot day, B) The air would become dirtier, or C) The soil would start to wash away? Show me with your fingers: 1 for A, 2 for B, 3 for C." (Takes a quick visual vote). "Interesting! Now, let's hear some quick reasoning. Why did you choose your answer?" (Facilitates a 2-minute debrief, accepting all answers). "All these are connected to the amazing jobs different parts of a tree do. Today, we'll become tree detectives to learn exactly how they work." | Students vote by holding up fingers.
