How do teachers ask effective questions? From theory to practical tips, this programme explores the approaches of eleven teachers from across the UK. From how to create a classroom culture where children feel safe answering questions, to properly differentiating questions and ensuring shy children get involved, the teachers share their own tried and tested methods. Finally the importance of dealing with misconceptions, and different styles of questioning are considered, as well as what to do when questioning goes wrong. This programme is part of a series where secondary teachers share their tried and tested strategies for success in the classroom, from group work to creativity and time management.
