問題

セクション1:発表と協力:体験記の情報・推論

When Chika arrived at the children's room, the team already had a clear objective: to make children laugh. Working with puppet shows, they eventually produced a show poster. Chika contributed a puppet. The team later shared its experience with another group, emphasizing a decision that changed how they approached the work.

During preparation, the loudest members made most of the decisions. The group tried collecting written suggestions before discussion. This brought forward ideas from members who rarely spoke. Some suggestions conflicted, so the group still needed to discuss priorities. The new method did not remove disagreement; it made more people's views available before a decision was made.

セクション2:図書館:報告書の情報・推論

This report concerns a project at the museum. The team, including Sara, aimed to understand old tools by working with history books. One visible outcome was a timeline. Resources included a pencil. The report focuses on how the team revised its approach after reviewing what happened during the first session.

Two sources were available: a detailed book written for experts and a shorter guide with clear illustrations. The group chose the guide for the first session, then kept the book for questions that the guide did not answer. Choosing a starting point did not mean rejecting more complex information. It meant arranging information in an order that people could use.

セクション3:展示と学び:メールの情報・推論

Dear project members, Thank you for helping us compare natural materials. At our meeting at the science museum, we worked with rocks and prepared a rock display. Jack supplied a magnifying glass. Before our next meeting, please consider the following account of a problem we encountered and how we responded.

The group tested two descriptions of the same exhibit. One contained a long list of dates; the other asked a question and connected the object to everyday life. Visitors spent more time reading the second description. This did not prove that every visitor understood the object better. The group planned to ask visitors to explain the exhibit in their own words before deciding which description supported learning.

セクション5:庭づくり:インタビューの情報・推論

Interviewer: What was your project about?

Ben: We met at the riverside park to work with trees. We wanted to provide shade. I brought a pair of gloves, and together we produced a tree sign. But the most useful lesson came from a difficulty we had to think about carefully. Here is what happened.

The group compared two plots. One received regular care, while the other was checked only occasionally. More plants survived in the first plot. However, the plots also received different amounts of sunlight. The group therefore avoided claiming that the care schedule alone explained the difference. For the next comparison, they planned to use plots with similar light conditions.

  1. Both plots received exactly the same treatment.
  2. The group had no interest in plants.
  3. No plants survived in either plot.
  4. The plots differed in sunlight as well as care.

問20(5点)

What would improve the next comparison?

  1. The original approach needed no changes.
  2. The team should never collect further evidence.
