Eleven Cats in a Bag by Noboru Baba
Translated from Japanese
Schema: Following directions, why it is important
Drawing Conclusions: The cats draw the conclusion that it is ok for them to pick a flower. What is the flaw in their reasoning?
Predicting: What do you predict the cats will do when they come to the tree? The bag?
Cause and Effect: Because the cats didn’t follow directions, the effect is they went into a bag which was a trap.
Synthesis, Internal Consistency: Why do the cats follow directions about not crossing the road? What is their reasoning?
