Two children are playing hide and seek in the woods. It is cold and Gabby is wearing earmuffs. We see the fun they are having but Gabby is having trouble finding Evan as he darts from tree to tree. Then she makes a connection. Removing her earmuffs will help her pinpoint the sound more easily. At last she can creep up on Evan and surprise him. This Lesson Starter helps children recognise that our ears give information about where sounds are coming from. PROMPT QUESTION: What made it easier for Gabby to hear Evan calling?
