Pupil Questions

Introduction

Children learn far more effectively when they are actively involved with a lesson, especially if they feel that their own questions have guided the lesson.

This unit has been created with the help of the Education School of John Moore's, Liverpool: Joyce Porter and Peter Harwood.

This unit introduces pupil questioning, describes the rationale behind it and invites you to watch two teachers making excellent use of it with upper primary groups.

Objectives

• Planning and managing a lesson with seemingly infinite flexibility
•  Discover the enormous value that can come from adopting new techniques
•  Identify how and where it is best incorporated into a lesson

Preparation

Subject Leaders: Having worked through the unit online, you can create your own subject Workshop for this subject.
