Questioning strategies used by me

From the CICT training workshop I learnt two new ways of questioning strategies, which I had not used in my teaching career.

1.  Lifeline (ask a peer) : If a child does not a answer to the question, the child can seek help from one of his friend. The friend would guide that child to find the answer, but not give the actual answer.

I used this strategy in class, and was very effective for learning. If the child did not know the answer, he learnt how to get it from his peer and thus was motivated and happy about it.

2. Asked the expert :
One of the child is made a expert and the other children question him. This really helped for effective questioning, because children understood what type of questions could be asked on a particular topic and what would be the expected answer.
