During small group, show the children an old phone, computer, fax machine or answering machine. Have the children predict what they think the inside will look like. Assist the children as they take it apart. Let them explore all the parts on the inside of the machine. Ask questions like, “What do you think that does” or “Do you think it would work without that part?” “Why or why not?”
