Wragg (2000) emphasizes on the nature of questioning as a tool for children's learning. The type of questions varies from simple to difficult level, which have been widely practiced in MCQ paper test all over the world. The quotient -30%:40%:30% (simple: average: difficult) is a standard guideline for an assessment paper to be valid and suitable for an academic test.
However, as an educational practitioner, i have to expect the 'unexpected', amusing yet funny responses from my beloved students. Their way of thinking are simple, genuinely straight-forward but reasonable enough to serve as a good reason. For instance, when they were asked about a gangster, they responded instantly..(with a straight-looking face):
1. Gangsters will wear black glasses (a.k.a sun glasses)
2. Gangsters wear torn-jeans (i.e. the latest jeans trend)
3. Gangsters have strange looking hair (i.e. the bleached/dyed ones)
4. and etc...
It was very hard for me to suppress my giggles and grins...
These children are indeed...children...:)
P.S.
If the child is you, what kind of answer would you likely to give?

that is almost like what we call'criminal profiling'.a posh term we adults coined to look, well, clever.isnt that is preconceived ideas we formed from experiences and what we gather from the sight,hearing, and other senses? ASBO is those who wears sweat pants, hoodies and acts and talks rough.we all forget about the white collared criminals because they dont fit into these images easily.dont fit the mould we virtually created in out simple minds.
love always.
