Closed Questions

 

Closed questions are questions that can be answered with a simple "yes" or "no" or with a specific piece of information. In school counseling, closed questions can be useful for gathering specific details or confirming understanding.

Examples of closed questions in school counseling:

1.       Do you understand the instructions I just gave you?

2.     Did you turn in your homework on time?

3.      Have you ever talked to a school counselor before?

4.      Is there anything specific that you would like to discuss today?

5.     Did you try any of the strategies we talked about last time?

6.     Are you feeling better today than you were yesterday?

7.      Did you speak to your teacher about the situation in class?

8.     Have you ever felt this way before?

9.      Did you experience any negative consequences as a result of your behavior?

10.  Are you interested in joining a support group for students dealing with similar issues?
