AKBARs RESEARCH DIFFERENT CLASSROOMS ON
EARTH Story by Vanessa Andreotti Illustrations
by Bruno Andreotti
12
AKBAR is a little Jupterian child. Her real name
is ???Öæ???????. But humans find this too
difficult to say.
13
AKBAR goes around the Solar System trying to find
out things about the universe. She loves
stories. She thinks it is very interesting how
different people can look at the same thing and
see completely different things. That is why they
tell different stories about it.
14
This time she decided to explore what children
around Earth thought about the spaces where
they learned things that were important to
them. She went to different places and met many
different children.
15

• She asked them
• What is your name and what do people call this
  place?
• Where is your favourite classroom?
• What is the best thing you learn there?
• Who are your teachers?

THINK ABOUT HER QUESTIONS. WHAT WOULD YOUR
ANSWERS BE?
16
AKBAR took pictures of the classrooms she
visited and recorded the responses of her new
friends on a special notebook.

Research notes I also visited classrooms that
were in large brick or wooden boxes. The
children there who I tried to contact did not
seem to be able to see or talk to me. It looked
as if their eyes could only see what was written
in their books and shown on the computer
screens. So, I could not ask them my questions.
DO YOU THINK AKBAR CAME TO YOUR CLASSROOM?
