Take a walk with a child and decide for yourselves.Everyon.docxperryk1
Take a walk with a child
and decide for yourselves.
Everyone benefits from walking. These benefits
include: improved fitness, cleaner air, reduced risks
of certain health problems, and a greater sense of
community. But walking needs to be safe and easy.
Take a walk with your child and use this checklist
to decide if your neighborhood is a friendly place
to walk. Take heart if you find problems, there are
ways you can make things better.
Getting started:
First, you'll need to pick a place to walk, like the
route to school, a friend's house or just somewhere
fun to go.
The second step involves the checklist. Read over
the checklist before you go, and as you walk, note
the locations of things you would like to change.
At the end of your walk, give each question a
rating. Then add up the numbers to see how you
rated your walk overall.
After you've rated your walk and identified any
problem areas, the next step is to figure out what
you can do to improve your community's score.
You'll find both immediate answers and long-term
solutions under "Improving Your Community's
Score..." on the third page.

3. Open Questions:
Challenging
Motivating
An open question is likely to receive a long answer.
They ask the respondent to think and reflect.
They will give you opinions and feelings.
They hand control of the conversation to the respondent
4. Example
As follow-on from closed questions, to
develop a conversation and open up
someone who is rather quiet.
What did you do on you holidays?
How do you keep focused on your work?
5. To get people to realize the extent of their
problems
(to which, of course, you have the solution).
I wonder what would happen if your customers complained
even more?
Bill Jones used to go out late. What happened to him?
To get them to feel good about you by asking
after their health or otherwise demonstrating
human concern about them.
How have you been after your operation?
You're looking down. What's up?
6. Closed Questions
A closed question can be answered with
either a single word or a short phrase.
7. Closed questions have the following characteristics:
They give you facts.
They are easy to answer.
They are quick to answer.
They keep control of the conversation with the questioner.
This makes closed questions useful in the following
situations:
8. As opening questions in a conversation, as it
makes it easy for the other person to answer,
and doesn't force them to reveal too much
about themselves.
It's great weather, isn't it?
Where do you live?
What time is it?
9. For testing their understanding (asking
yes/no questions).
This is also a great way to break into a
long ramble.
So, you want to take your lessons
during your holiday from Uni –True?
10. For setting up a desired positive or
negative frame of mind in them (asking
successive questions with obvious
answers either yes or no).
Are you happy with your current employer?
Do they give you all that you need?
Would you like to find a better employer?
11. For achieving closure of a persuasion (seeking yes to the
big question).
If I can deliver this tomorrow, will you sign for it now?
Note how you can turn any opinion into a closed
question that forces a yes or no by adding tag questions,
such as "isn't it?", "don't you?" or "can't they?", to any
statement.
The first word of a question sets up the dynamic of the
closed question, signaling the easy answer ahead. Note
how these are words like: do, would, are, will, if.
12. Closed questions prompting yes/no or short factual
answers are mainly used in a lesson context to:
•elicit specific pieces of information from the pupil
•gain confirmation that your understanding of what the
pupil has said is correct - an important feedback tool.
You are likely to use closed questions
•at the start of the lesson when you are taking basic
personal details of the pupil
•at intervals throughout the lesson when you want to
check your pupil’s understanding
•at the end of the lesson to sum up and agree on future
action.
13. Leading (assumptive) Questions:
One way of influencing a person is to ask them questions that are
deliberately designed to make them think in a certain way. Leading
questions include the answer, point the listener in the right
direction or include some form or carrot or stick to send them to
the 'right' answer.
14. Leading questions
are often directional in that, whilst they do not indicate an
answer, they close off undesirable alternatives and guide the
person in a desired direction:
Do you think a mirror check could be a good idea in future?
15. Note that not only words can lead the question.
You can also lead people by your body Language and voice tone
effects, such as with subtle emphasis.
You could alternatively add desirable carrots in the statement:
"Would you prefer to take your test in Cheetham Hill or Sale
where the traffic is lighter?"
Note how the traffic in Cheetham Hill is not mentioned, but the
link of lighter traffic with Sale will still make it more desirable
16. Keep your questions on the subject
Be specific – Target the area or subject in question
Prioritise the things that are important
Concentrate – Look well ahead and time your questions
17. Where do we begin to use Q&A?
Where we feel the pupil may know the answers – where they have already
been provided with the knowledge.
Where do we begin to use Q&A? – is it appropriate during Phase One?
Example: Controls Lesson: Have you ridden a bicycle? Have you put on a
seatbelt before?
Where would Q&A be deemed inappropriate?
Example: Controls Lesson: Describe how we use our mirrors when preparing
to pass a stationary vehicle.
The relevant knowledge has not yet been given – so the pupil would have
to guess

Confrontational or Accusatory.
We should consider the context and perhaps consider
alternatives.
What brought you to that decision?
How did you reach that decision?
39. Is It Safe To emerge?
No
WHY isn’t it safe?
Because there are parked cars
40. Have you got a clear view in both directions?
No, I can’t see for all those parked cars
So how will you improve your view?
By using Peep & Creep ?
41. Is a signal necessary in this instance?
No
WHY isn’t a signal necessary
Because it wouldn’t benefit any other
road-user
42. Might there be Pedestrian Crossings
on this road?
Yes
WHY is that?
Because it’s a built-up area and the
sign shows a school nearby
43. Where will you check on approach to this parked
vehicle?
Interior mirror & Right exterior mirror
Why would you check the right Mirror
To check whether cars may be about to overtake
me
44. What about the consequences?
If you saw an approaching car in your right mirror
How would you react?
45. Approaching the Roundabout,
Where will you check first?
I would check to my right!
Why check to the right?
Because I would normally give way
to traffic entering from my right
