A good question can do so much in the classroom.
Check understanding, reveal misconceptions, make thinking visible, retrieve information from long term memory & help every learner participate in the lesson. That’s why I wrote Questioning for Teaching & Learning: a little guide for teachers.
Common sense isn't always common practice in the classroom, I say that from experience not a place of judgement!
I discuss all these points plus more, with lots of practical examples in my upcoming webinar. Find out more here:

New webinar focusing on Questioning. All teachers & leaders are welcome.
Learners have answered correctly, but how much do they know and fully understand? How did they get to that answer? I explore this & more with a wide range of techniques explored.

"Every young person has a right to an education that is rich in knowledge, high in challenge and rooted in belonging. That is not a luxury for some children; it is an entitlement for all."

The academic language of school is either a barrier to learning or instead it can unlock the curriculum.
I wrote ‘Literacy Essentials for Every Teacher’ to distil what teachers need to know and do about teaching that language:
