Classes 6–8 Quick-Start
A suggested guide to running interactive activities with your class.
10-Minute Lesson Shape
Run these steps with a projector or shared screen:
- Predict (2 mins): Before clicking anything, ask the class what they think will happen.
- Try (5 mins): Let a student choose an input or change a setting. Observe the result together.
- Explain (3 mins): Ask students why the result happened and if it matched their prediction.

Discussion Prompts
Data playground
Did the extra votes match your prediction? Explain the tie using the counts. What can this small survey NOT tell you about other children?
AI detective
What evidence helped you decide? What would you ask about an unfamiliar “smart” device?
Teach a tiny model
What happened to the green apple after you added more varied examples? Why must test examples be separate?
What did we leave out?
Which examples were missing? Why can a single overall result hide an important problem?
Pause. Check. Protect.
What will you check before you trust an AI answer? What information should stay private?
My first AI idea
When would your idea need learning from examples? When might a simple rule be enough?
