Open & Closed Questions

Open questions- Require more information, explanation or opinion. They may give more choices: e.g. What happened? How was your holiday? What did you enjoy most about it?

Closed questions- Usually have only one answer: e.g. How old are you? Do you read books?  

Open and Closed Questions are a very important part of speech and comprehension.

Making Evaluations

Making Evaluations: Lunchtime Places
“The teachers at Sunshine school wanted to know where the most children play at lunchtime.
After one lunchtime they asked all the children where they had spent most of the lunchtime and
made a bar graph.


After analysing the data above, there were 94 students participating. Breaking that 94 students down,
I have found out the number of seniors and juniors separately. The most popular area for the seniors
was the sports field and for the juniors was the concrete area. The least popular areas for the seniors
was the tree house & the sandpit, however for the juniors, the least popular area was the library.

A large amount of families that came from the ship, came from Ireland. During that time,
Ireland was in the middle of a famine period, and they all would have been leaving to live
a better life in New Zealand. The Clifton Ship arrived on the 23rd of January in 1848, with
their captain Kettlewell. There was 79 pensioners, 72 women, 161 children and a surgeon,
Dr Arthur Saunders Thompsons.
