  1. Probing Questions – to draw out specific detail Chunking Questions – more or less detail Open or Closed Questions – Yes/No or a long answer Clear Questions – simple and unambiguous Funnel Questions – seeking more detail Tag Questions– turning a statement into a Q. Questioning TechniquesHow can we try to engage more in Q&A? Leading Questions – to help you go down a particular route Linking Questions – to move the discussion around a group To be good at questioning you have to be good at listening

  2. Probing– What do you mean by that? Can you explain what you mean when you say ***? Chunking – And…? Why? How so? When? ProbingQuestions – to draw out specific detail Chunking Questions – more or less detail Clear and closed What is the date that this started? What is *x*? ClearQuestions – simple and unambiguous Open or Closed Questions – Yes/No or a long answer Open – What dos the audience think about this character at the moment? Funnel– What do you mean by that? Can you expand? How can you make that clearer? Tag Questions– turning a statement into a Q. Tag– Why do you think that that’s the reason x means y? Why can’t we all be equal? Funnel Questions – seeking more detail Leading– So, if we’ve just read this about this, what do you think this could mean? When we think of this certain event, what do we think of? Leading Questions – to help you go down a particular route Linking – X do you agree with Y? X could you expand on what Y has said? Y any more comments you could add? Linking Questions – to move the discussion around a group

  3. Creating a ‘Tigger-like Bounce’ - Can you get questions to bounce around your classroom from teacher to student and onto further students?

  4. 1. POSE • Give the context of your PPPB approach to the class. Insist on hands down before the question is delivered. • Provide a question or a series of questions, ensuring that you ask the students to remain reflective. • Pose the question to the class; not an individual. • Then Pause… 2. PAUSE • This is the difficult part. To stop talking… • Ask the class to hold the thought... think... and think again... • (Think, Pair, Share if needed) • Keep the reflection for as long as possible….before you, • Pounce! – name first to alert the student or table group.

  5. 3. POUNCE • Insist that the answer to the question comes from student A and possibly student B, directly and as fast as possible! • Name student A to respond and don't move from the student… • Wait for an answer... pause... If student A does manage to answerthen move to bounce…. 4. BOUNCE • Ask another student B their opinion of student A's answer • This can be developed by asking student B and C their opinions to student A's response. • An additional strategy is to Bounce the question onto a group A...and subsequently, a sub-group B if group A do not deliver a suitable way forward. Teasing out students’ thinking skills and understanding, is far more important, than moving onto the next stage of any lesson.
