What it is
WH question practice supports speech and language goals, early readers and English learners. Each question has a color and a symbol for its question word.
How to use it
- Talk about the picture together first.
- Ask one question type at a time, then mix them.
- Let students point to the answer before they say it.
Three quick tips
- Start with who and what. They are often easier than when and why.
- Point to the part of the picture that answers the question.
- Count correct answers and cues at the bottom of the page to see progress.
Questions
- Which WH questions should I teach first?
- Many educators start with who and what, then where, then when and why. Follow your student’s goals.
- Can students answer by pointing?
- Yes. Every answer has a picture, and SCAFLI can make an AAC choice-board version too.
- Can I get a new scene each week?
- Yes. Ask for another scene and SCAFLI makes a new picture with new questions.
