 However, it would be a great first lesson on meta-cognition for kids who have never thought about it.  By having one write quickly, a short story about learning (without knowing what the later parts of the lesson are) they are more likely to be honest in the story.  If well led, the 2nd and 3rd steps will elicit wonderful insights for both student and teacher.

With a solid introduction to meta-cognition, the opportunity for further inquiry based lessons on both content and learning is unlimited.
