If you're looking for a quick, efficient way to teach asking and answering questions, this is it! Do your students struggle to ask meaningful questions while reading? Do they need help asking questions about both fiction and nonfiction texts?

This print-and-go set of 5 mini lessons will help you effectively teach asking questions with your students! Great for both whole group and small group instruction, these mini lessons follow the official mini lesson outline of: connection, teaching point, teach, practice, and link.

This mini lesson set includes hands-on activities to help teach asking questions--with everything you need, including teacher modeling pages, teacher prompting suggestions, anchor charts, passages, graphic organizers, and original texts! It also includes student practice pages and activity cards to help target skills and foster independent or partner/small group practice! To help you out even more, answer keys and teacher suggestions are provided for all activities!

Even better, when there are student practice pages that apply to a lesson, a digital version of each one is provided! These digital files are compatible with Google Slides, Google Classroom, and PowerPoint.

The lessons included in this set are:

• Why do we ask questions?
• Turning Thin Questions THICK
• To Answer or Not to Answer
• Different Types of Questions for Beginning, Middle, & End
• I have the answer, You ask the question

These lesson plans, while short and sweet, are detailed enough to leave for a substitute or give to a teaching aide--especially since everything you need is included right in this file!
