Scenario: Drew - Using Open Ended Questions

[sahana]

Hi hoping someone is able to help me with this question.
Question is Drew( 18 month child ) piles the small rock together.so write one open-ended question and one suggestion that could be used to encourage continued conversation/interaction.

I would say open ended question would be " what you are building?".so how can i keep the conversation with 18 month old child child?.

After the open ended question you need to write a suggestion also. Do you have any examples of what to write here? Im not really sure what they are asking of as a suggestion. Is it suggesting how to extend, or what we could do next, or like a statement about the experience?

So, an open ended question could be:

How are you gping to use those for building? and maybe a suggestion is referring to the educator making a suggestion? e.g. "let's try put the smaller ones at the bottom first".

Hope this helps,
