*Start with something intriguing, puzzling or interesting.

*Ask Questions and get student to explore and experiment.

*Guide students but allow them to articulate their ideas. *Planning questions in advance will help you guide the students towards the concepts you want them to learn.

*Encourage students to formulate additional questions for further investigation,record their ideas and data, and form conclusions based on evidence.
