What the questions look like
Three examples at the ages 11–12 level. In BrainBite, every question comes with an instant explanation.
You want a later bedtime. What works best?
An opinion plus a reason. “I think… because…” is the skeleton of every argument, at home and in class.
Your classmate disagrees. What do you say?
“I see it differently, because…” Attack the argument, never the person. That is how debates stay fun.
You argue for more sports at school. What makes it stronger?
A concrete example. “Like last year’s sports day” beats ‘because it’s fun’. Examples are evidence.
