Description
Many parents have found themselves thrust into the front line of helping their child with learning from home. While some might be content with sitting their son or daughter in front of the computer screen, many want them to experience a richer diet. In this presentation the speaker will explain how experienced teachers use questions and answers to shape students’ thinking. Exploring the use of question hierarchy, the speaker will illustrate how parents or carers can scaffold a child’s thinking and help them grasp new concepts. A rich question helps reinforce understanding and join knowledge from a wider range of sources. It also helps to see what is already understood and what has been missed. Do you see what we mean?
