One of the key ingredients for effective teaching is asking good questions.

Thoughtful questioning fosters deeper thinking and activates students’ brains. As you review the following ideas, I encourage you to share them in your next professional development session or departmental meeting and discuss them in these ways:

• Which of these strategies do I already use effectively or have adapted to fit my teaching style?
• Consider a topic you’re currently teaching and plan a bank of questions to engage your pupils.
• What will I implement over the next two weeks, and how will I assess its effectiveness?
• Can I peer-observe a colleague who is modelling any of these strategies?
