Critical thinking lesson 21: Thinking about consequences · Set 186 · 40 questions

Thinking tip (Think one step ahead): Follow the chain: start from what happened and use each “if” rule in turn. Thinking ahead: asking “what if?”, imagining what follows, thinking of others, reading the rules first, waiting a moment.
