I wonder if there is anything going on at home” • One word can make a huge difference. “Your child will be held back in the same grade for another year. ” V. “Your child might be held back in the same grade for another year” rightquestion. org
Facilitation Tips • Introduce the process as quickly as possible • Do not explain the question focus • Do not stop to answer the questions as they are being produced • Make sure to leave time for reflection rightquestion. org
