This resource offers the opportunity to think about the appropriate questions to ask at various stages of investigation, and how to ensure high quality questioning(ta) at these points. This is obviously an important classroom skill, one which has a strong impact on children's progression, yet which can often be lacking in classrooms which tend to focus on fact based recall questions. The resources offer an opportunity for thinking about such activity, and some prompts for applying questioning techniques. Although they are written for science, the suggestions could be used as prompts for application in other subjects.
