Knowing when to ask a question

Knowing when to ask a question (and when not to) can significantly influence the level of children’s engagement, however the nature of any questions asked is even more important than the timing. Poor questions can hi-jack the child’s agenda and redirect or constrain their learning.

Facilitated By

Barbara Watson (PhD)

Webinar Duration

Approximately 60 minutes

Skill Level

Suitable for ECE Educators

What will you learn?

Moving beyond the use of open-ended questions is critical in supporting sustained inquiry and exploration.

Join Barbara Watson who will explore a hierarchy of questions that will support you to frame questions for a broader and deeper range of purposes. Let’s also directly address the occasions when asking a question is inappropriate.
