Think of your small group as a detective agency and the following events as mysteries to be solved. Make up a story to explain what caused one of the mysteries numbered 1-5. Then, make up a story to explain mystery number 6. If you have more time, return to mysteries 1-5 and choose another to solve. Take notes about all your stories so that later you can share them with the other groups.

2. A rainbow has glowed in the sky.

4. A pancake tasted awful.

5. Your favorite team has won a championship game.
