Open and Closed Questions Worksheet

Communication skills lesson 8: Open and closed questions · Set 524 · 40 questions

Communication tip (What, how, why open the door): Open questions (what, how, why): “What happened at the match?”, “How did you make that model?”, “Why do you like cricket?” Closed questions (is, are, do, did, was, have): “Is it raining?”, “Did you finish the model?”, “Have you eaten lunch?” Good question habits: asking when unsure, one question at a time, waiting for a pause, asking politely. Poor: asking five at once, asking mid-sentence, rude personal questions.
