1 How to Run the Activity
- Step 1: Introduce the Quest: Tell the students they are now "Helper Heroes" on a mission. Present the 3 Power Cards (Brain, Board, Buddy) to the class.
- Step 2: Hand out Role-Play Cards: Choose student volunteers to act out the scenario on each card (or read them yourself and have the whole class guess the power).
- Step 3: Solve the Puzzle: For each card, ask the class: "Which power should our hero use first?" Prompt them to point to their foreheads (Brain), look around (Board), or whisper to a buddy (Buddy).
- Step 4: Reinforce the Routine: Celebrate each successful solution! Remind them: "We try all three before we ask the teacher!"
Prompt Script Questions
Use these simple questions to guide the conversation for young learners:
- 🗣️ "What is our hero's problem right now?"
- 🗣️ "Do we need to interrupt work, or can we solve this?"
- 🗣️ "If they ask a friend, what's a kind way to ask?"
The Golden Rule
"Try your Brain, look at the Board, ask a Buddy. If you are still stuck, then you are ready for me!"
