Find at least one to label “C” for closed questions or and at least one to label “O” for open-ended questions.

    • Closed questions: can be answered with “yes” or “no” or with one word.    
    • Open-ended questions: require an explanation and cannot be answered with "yes”, “no”, or one word. 

    Then, edit your post using the pencil symbol and in the "write something" section, next to your initials, label it C or O.

    THINK: What are the advantages and disadvantages of asking each type of question? (optional) Use the Add Comment chat box icon for this post, if you'd like to share an advantage or disadvantage you see for Open and/or Closed questions.  Add your first and last initial after any comments that you make.
