Selected Default Gakuva

Good questions help us understand. When something is unclear, we can ask for information or say, “Can you explain that again?” Answers should give a real detail, not only yes or no when more is needed.

Spend about 10–15 minutes asking and answering questions about three ready pictures.

Check understanding

  • Ask a question when something is unclear or more information is needed
  • Answer questions with relevant and specific information
  • Request clarification politely (e.g. 'Can you explain that again?')
“If your child doesn't understand something — like instructions for a game or an explanation from a teacher — do they ask a question to find out more rather than just guessing?”
