Using the pattern clusters, teams study mentor stems for strong How Might We statements and compare weak versus evidence-based examples tied to science communication. They draft 2-3 possible How Might We statements plus a one-sentence problem statement that names the science concept, the 5th grade audience need, and the key communication barrier. Teams select one strongest version using a checklist for focus, evidence, and usefulness for design decisions.
