One Question Deeper: Teachers & Students

Know the students behind the desks.

Less lecturing. More listening.

280 questions and 560 follow-ups for better conversations in the classroom. Advisory periods, morning meetings, the first week of term, and the student who never speaks.

Eight sections: Just Talk to Me, Who You Are Outside This Room, How You Learn, Being a Student Is Hard Sometimes, This Classroom, What You Wish Teachers Knew, Who You're Becoming, and Where You're Going.

Built for a room where safety comes first. The pass is written into the questions themselves, because a student who knows they can decline is a student who might actually answer.

What is a completely useless fact that lives in your head rent free? is a safe place to start. What do teachers assume about students that is often wrong? is where it gets useful.

Depth markers keep it appropriate: easy for a warm-up, real when there is trust.

Every question carries two follow-ups and a cue for the teacher: what to watch for while a student answers. Not what to say next. What to notice.
