These are questions that can be answered in one or a few words. For example, Are you hot? The answer is either "yes", "no" or, perhaps, "a little".

These are questions that need a bit more thought and longer answers. Often these are "Why?" questions, and others asking for an opinion or some kind of personal information, like "What are you doing after school today?"

Open questions

These are questions where the person asking the question knows the answer. For example, a teacher holds up a picture of a cat and asks "What’s this?"

Display questions

These are questions where the person asking the question does not know the answer. If the teacher asks "Who has a cat as a pet?", this is a real question (assuming the teacher doesn’t know the answer)
