ITA with jack's mom about asking specific questions. Did you have art? What did you make in art? Did your teacher read a story to you? What was it about? Who did you play with at recess? What did you play?
But I don't bombard them all at once either I just sprinkle the questions through the rest of our day. I have also found bedtime to be a good time for real conversation and my ODS will tell me about things he is worried or upset about then.
Even being specific will get the "I don't know" answer. What's interesting is he will sometimes tell me about things he did at school last week, but not the same day.
It's like he has to "chew on it" for awhile. LoL
I'll try the bedtime thing. Maybe being relaxed will loosen his tongue.
