 Syntactic Awareness Activity
Asking Questions Using Where
Directions: Today we are going to practice asking and answering
questions that use the question word where. Remember, we ask
questions by using question words. When someone asks a question
using the question word where, they are asking a question about a place.
Note: There may be variations in the sentences created by your class.
Allow for these variations and restate students’ sentences so that
they are grammatically correct. If necessary, have students repeat the
corrected sentence.
