10. Can you use more than one type of inquiry in a lesson? Explain how and why.
-Yes I can use more than one style of learning.

- I can use structured and informal style that I can help the child in the play or solve
some thing as Vygotsky said because some child need to help to complete their play or
solve or maybe they feel more confident when they feel someone care about him .
Teacher provide the question to the child also give them step by step instructions.

-I can use naturalistic style that the child do everything by them self as jean Piaget said .
In this style the child depends on himself and he can think deeply on his own , it help
child to expand his imagination and gain more knowledge.

-The level of inquiry can be customized to suit the student need.
