    Explanation

    Explanation
    The coach is displaying the non-listening habit of "Me too" Syndrome.

    • Open-Ended Question

    • Closed-Ended Question

    Correct Answer
    A. Closed-Ended Question
    Explanation
    The coach wants to determine the exact number of students in a particular teacher's classroom. This indicates that the coach is looking for a specific and definite answer, rather than an open-ended response. A closed-ended question would provide a limited set of options or a specific answer to choose from, allowing the coach to gather precise information about the number of students in the classroom.

    Rate this question:

    Correct Answer
    A. Closed-Ended Question
    Explanation
    The coach should ask a closed-ended question because they want to obtain specific information about the teacher's planning time on Tuesdays and Thursdays. A closed-ended question allows for a limited set of response options, such as specific times or durations, which would provide the coach with the exact information they need.

    Correct Answer
    A. Asking questions
    Explanation
    Asking questions is not a method of establishing trust with a teacher because it implies doubt or lack of confidence in the teacher's knowledge or abilities. Trust is built by being human and relatable, showing reliability and consistency, and adhering to the coaching role, which all contribute to a sense of trust and confidence in the teacher.
