Let Them Hypothesize
Step 1: When reading a story, stop midway and ask them what they think is going to happen, how is the story going to end?
Step 2: Open ended questions like these fire up the grey cells and force them to think of logical and creative outcomes. Give them time to think and come up with an elaborated answer.
You can even use real life situations to ask open-ended questions like, when struck in a traffic jam, ask them to think of a solution that could help ease congestion.
