==> Show the kids an empty file cabinet drawer

==> A file cabinet is used to file important papers.

==> Our brains are like a filing cabinet. They are full of all the important things we know and have experienced- all our memories.

==> Every single day our schema grows. It grows because we experience new things, we learn new things, and we read new things.

==> When we read a book we take the new information and we file it into our brains.

==> Read a book to the children.

==> Before reading ask them what they know. Make a chart.

==> After reading, have them tell you new things they learned from the book. Add it to a chart.
