    Please Help ;) Does anybody know where I can find question strips to put up in Centers/Free Choice areas to encourage paras and aids to ask more effective questions?  Our program used to have them but dont know where they came from?...

    Thanks,

    Again, I saved but have no identifying clues.  These questions are now prompting me to pay attention to authorship and provenance.

    Hi fellow educators, I encourage the use of both attached resources when defining the play areas. The "Learning Center Signs" helps teachers to articulate to parents and visitors the skills that children are learning while playing in each of the interest areas.  The "Play Area Prompts" helps teachers to facilitate engaging back-and-forth discussions while playing, and at the same time supporting children's (cognitive, social/emotional, and language) development and learning experiences. I do hope that this is helpful.

    Thank you for sharing. I am printing the Play Area Prompts and posting them around my room. Our district actually had some learning center signs made and they are posted in each center in our classroom. T
