Are you familiar with the term open-ended questions?
At Inspired our educators incorporate open-ended questions into our daily practices, routines and learning opportunities.
Why?
Open-ended questions develop;
- Children’s language by using different words and a wider range of vocabulary.
- Encourage children to express their thoughts, ideas and opinions to be creative
- Develop positive relationships buy engaging in meaningful conversations
Our top 3 open-ended questions you can share at the dinner table with your family.
- What makes you happy?
