Justin Slocum Bailey lists these common questions that he hears from teachers:

1. How do I get my students to talk more?
2. How can I use texts without putting interaction on hold?
3. How can we have high-level conversations with students who are not advanced speakers?

One way to address them, he says, is to ask good questions. He goes on to list six questions/question types that can engage students in conversations in this blog post: http://indwellinglanguage.com/6-questions-to-start-sustain-and-elevate-conversation-about-a-text/
