Today we brainstormed our prior knowledge and began to wonder about what we'd like to find out...

Masan - Why does tea make us warm?

Cameron - What type of tree produced the leaves in the tea bag?

Eric - How are tea bags made?

Edward - Why is tea so famous?

Paul - Is tea healthy?

Olive - How many different tea flavours are there?

Dylan - Is coffee tea?

Vian - Why do so many people drink tea?

Jayden - Can you use sugar on it?
Ethan - what does basil do to it?
