Guest Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Hi everyone I'm wanting to put up some effective prompts around nursery, especially for staff to be able to support creating and thinking critically, so far I've got- .tell me about what you an see .why do you think that...? I wonder if we...? .what do you think would happen if...? I would be grateful for any input Thanks in advance Dianne
AnonyMouse_30128 Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 'Wh'y is a high level question so probably only for your older children what /when/ how/ what if/ if then what one of the things I find tricky is negative questions so.......which one is not green/ doesn't make a noise/can't be eaten etc ...once embedded it becomes part of your practise 3

AnonyMouse_35577 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 I've put these questions on the ceiling so staff can look up and pretend to think but use them as a prompt 2
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 ours are on what we call the washing line
AnonyMouse_5970 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 ours are on what we call the washing line Panders, that made me laugh. Not because you put the questions on the washing line (great idea!) but because you sound like Miranda's mother "I put them on what I call 'the washing line'" If you're not a Miranda fan, you'll have no idea what I'm talking about! 6

Loved Miranda - such a shame she's not writing any more!
AnonyMouse_22106 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Loved Miranda - such a shame she's not writing any more! You and me both - my daughter has the boxed set and when I am feeling a bit down, she'll often say shall we have a Miranda session! :1b A particularly enjoyed the Gary Barlow episode :wub: 2
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 my middle son is a Gary Barlow lookie likie and whilst he has his own unique talents in the world of quantity surveying, he can't write songs as well as Gary! 2
AnonyMouse_19920 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 I've put these questions on the ceiling so staff can look up and pretend to think but use them as a prompt i would love to do that but we are in a church room and the ceiling is so high 1 - i wouldnt be able to reach it 2 - dont think staff would be able to read it from that height lol 1
