Decide if the following questions are closed or open ended questions.
Did you like the book?
Was Maria (the main character in the book) happy?
Did you ever feel like Maria?
What color is her coat?
What would you like to share about the story?
How did Maria choose the color red to paint the chair?
Did you like the story?
What did you like about the story?
What would happen if…..?
—————————————————————————
If you want children to think/inquire, you will ask open ended
questions and give children enough time to think and answer.
Reason: “How do you know?” “What would happen if?” “How
could we find out?”
Notice details: “What do you see (hear, smell, feel)? “I wonder
why clouds are moving so quickly?”
Make comparisons: “How are they the same/different?”
Come to conclusions: “What would happen if…” “Why do you
suppose that is happening?”
