What kids practice
WH questions start with question words. Who asks for a person, what asks for a thing, and where asks for a place. Kindergartners answer these questions about stories and about their day, and knowing what each word asks for helps them give the right kind of answer.
Watch for
- Answering with the wrong kind of word, like "a ball" for a where question. Point to the chart and ask what the word asks for.
- Answering with yes or no. WH questions need more than yes or no.
- Guessing before the story is done. Read the whole sentence, then ask.
It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full WH questions what where who guide for kindergarten.
