At least there was a                                          song    timorous of wing-beat snowdrift ash                                           of red horizon then somewhere calling                                          as under one’s breath (I did not hope you                                          would find me wanting) and the next extinction                                           on every wing—            Copyright © 2014 by David Baker.

Pieces of a story, a relationship, a landscape—here I let them coexist without too much worry over explanations. Here too I’m interested in both form and fracture, letting the syllabic lines maintain a rift, a caesura, as part of the rhythm of it all.” —David Baker   David Baker is the author of Scavenger Loop (W.

11 things they did not and will not learn in school

Ways to Ask Your Kids 'So How Was School Today'?

 

QUESTIONS

 

This year, Simon is in fourth grade and Grace is in first grade, and I find myself asking them every day after school, "So how was school today?"

 

And every day I get an answer like "fine" or "good," which doesn't tell me a whole lot.

 

AND I WANT TO KNOW A WHOLE LOT!!!!

 

Or at least get a full sentence. So the other night, I sat down and made a list of more engaging questions to ask about school. They aren't perfect, but I do at least get complete sentences, and some have led to some interesting conversations... and hilarious answers... and some insights into how my kids think and feel about school.

 

1. What was the best thing that happened at school today? (What was the worst thing that happened at school today?)

 

2. Tell me something that made you laugh today.

 

3. If you could choose, who would you like to sit by in class? (Who would you NOT want to sit by in class? Why?)

 

4. Where is the coolest place at the school?

 

5. Tell me a weird word that you heard today. (Or something weird that someone said.)

 

6. If I called your teacher tonight, what would she tell me about you?

 

7. How did you help somebody today?

 

8. How did somebody help you today?

 

9. Tell me one thing that you learned today.

 

10. When were you the happiest today?

 

11. When were you bored today?

 

12. If an alien spaceship came to your class and beamed someone up, who would you want them to take?

 

13. Who would you like to play with at recess that you've never played with before?

 

14. Tell me something good that happened today.

 

15. What word did your teacher say most today?

 

16. What do you think you should do/learn more of at school?

 

17. What do you think you should do/learn less of at school?

 

18. Who in your class do you think you could be nicer to?

 

19. Where do you play the most at recess?

 

20. Who is the funniest person in your class? Why is he/she so funny?

 

21. What was your favorite part of lunch?

 

22. If you got to be the teacher tomorrow, what would you do?

 

23. Is there anyone in your class who needs a time-out?

 

24. If you could switch seats with anyone in the class, who would you trade with? Why?

 

25. Tell me about three different times you used your pencil today at school.

 

*****

 

So far, my favorite answers have come from questions 12, 15 and 21. Questions like the "alien" one give kids a non-threatening way to say who they would rather not have in their class, and open the door for you to have a discussion to ask why, potentially uncovering issues you didn't know about before.

 

And the answers we get are sometimes really surprising. When I asked question 3, I discovered that one of my children didn't want to sit by a best friend in class anymore -- not out of a desire to be mean or bully, but in the hope they'd get the chance to work with other people.

 

As my kids get older, I know I am going to have to work harder and harder to stay engaged with them -- but I know it's going to be worth the work.

A man walks into work with two black eyes. His boss asks what happened.

 

The man says, "I was sitting behind a big woman at church. When we stood up to sing hymns, I noticed that her dress was caught in her crack, so I pulled it out. She turned around and punched me square in the eye."

 

"Where did you get the other shiner?" the boss asks.

 

"Well," the man says, "I figured she preferred it in the crack, so I pushed it back in."

Dear Ferry Meed

When you keep getting the wrong answers, try asking better questions. - Jonathan Lockwood Huie To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination. - Albert Einstein There are no right answers to wrong questions. - Ursula K. Le Guin When we have arrived at the question, the answer is already near. - Ralph Waldo Emerson A good question is never answered. It is not a bolt to be tightened into place but a seed to be planted and to bear more seed toward the hope of greening the landscape of idea. - John Ciardi We thought that we had the answers, it was the questions we had wrong. - Bono Well, you ask a silly question, and you get a silly answer. - Tom Lehrer A prudent question is one-half of wisdom. - Francis Bacon Today's affirmation: I question my questions.
