Socratic Questions (launches)  should all be based around the “difficulty” type we are exploring that week. There are so many good examples of people or countries or families who have struggled with all these different types of difficulties. There are lots of opportunities for "Imagine you are in this person's shoes - would you choose A or B" type questions. Follow up questions involving overcoming those difficulties are also fantastic. ie If you could develop the mindset/ability etc of _______  or  _______ which would be most helpful in this situation?  (this is how we could bring in our growth mindset and habits)Landings (reflections & games) could also be based around the week's topic. Brain teasers for the mental difficulty week, money games for the financial difficulty week etc etcA.I. also generated examples for each type of difficulty:
