About the Event
A smart guess means the same thing as an “educated guess” but the term is more kid-friendly and one that younger kids can more easily learn to understand. When we’re sharing space with others, we have to make smart guesses to interpret and respond to the situation and the people in it. We can make smart guesses about the hidden rules, about people’s thoughts and feelings, and about the group plan.
To make a smart guess we have to look, listen and think. When we look we are thinking with our eyes, we use whole body listening to interpret what people are saying and we think about what we already know. We call this the Smart Guess Formula.
