Getting Students to ask the Questions

Who asks most of the questions in your lesson?
Why would we want to change that?
![Page 4: Getting students to ask the questions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052410/555137a9b4c905325d8b5400/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Higher order thinking involves being able to cut through and pose
questions that will guide a line of thinking,
or uncover the complexities of a
situation.
True independent thinking and learning involves being able to
research and investigate from
scratch.

Just as we would model or teach students how to generate answers, we
need to do the same for how to pose and organise
questions.

Ask the teacher
Working in groups, get students to generate questions that they would like to ask the teacher about the topic they are studying. Each group can choose one question that they can then pose and have to select their best question.

Think Pair Share
Use the ‘think pair share’ structure to scaffold the generation of questions by students.
Do individually Do in pairs
Share with the group

Hot SeatingHot-seating is where a pupil adopts the role of a character from a book or a play, from a period in history, from another country, or from a particular perspective. Students are put under a spotlight and asked questions by the audience. Because he or she is required to ‘stay in character’, even the most reserved pupil will find this process more comfortable than you might expect, but the planning of questions to ask others in character is very very powerful.

Question DiceAs a plenary activity get students to roll a question dice – and they choose another student or group of students to pose this question to in the class. This works very well alongside the ‘phone a friend’ strategy where students can pass something onto others in the room.
![Page 23: Getting students to ask the questions](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052410/555137a9b4c905325d8b5400/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Spend a lesson …Generating and refining questions, reducing and reducing them until they get to one crucial question. Spend a good amount of time reflecting on what makes a good question.
