Teacher's field guide

What Students Need to Do: Students use who, what, where, when, why, and how to ask for information aloud. They choose a question word that matches what they want to learn.
What Mastery Looks Like: Given a picture or situation, the student independently asks a relevant question using the right question word. The question is clear and asks for the expected kind of information.
Common Misconceptions: Students may raise their voice at the end of a statement instead of using a question word. They may mix up who and where or say fragments like "Where dog?"
How to Assess It: Show a playground picture and say, "Ask me one who question and one where question about this picture." Listen for the correct opening words and complete spoken questions.
