RAR #166: What’s the deal with open-ended questions?


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we’re talking about how to talk with your kids about books. Specifically, we’re talking about open-ended questions, which you’ve probably heard us talk about before here at Read-Aloud Revival.

Open-ended questions are key to having conversations with your kids about anything they read, and anything you read together.

But what exactly qualifies as an open-ended question, and why do they work?

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

  • How to make book conversation a habit
  • How open ended questions are a form of narration
  • How to talk about books even if you haven’t read them yourself
