Perhaps the children could use this newspaper writing prompt to write about Einstein's Theory of Relativity, or perhaps to describe his winning of the Nobel Prize for Physics or Time Magazine's "Man of the Century" award. You could also use it for an obituary writing exercise.
Asking questions is a great way for children to build critical thinking skills. Can they imagine they are a talk show host interviewing Sir Isaac Newton and think of some great questions to ask him?
Perhaps the children could use this newspaper writing prompt to write about Isaac Newton discovering gravity, or his three laws of motion.
Asking questions about the world around us is how many scientific theories begin, just like when Isaac Newton asked why the apple fell downwards and he ended up discovering gravity!
