Students love short cuts! Don't we all? But, when it comes to improving writing skills, we try our very best to encourage the students to answer our questions in a complete sentence.

Question:  What day is your birthday?   Answer:  February 12th or It's February 12th

Here is a fun way to practice complete sentence answers to the five questions.

   

Give this paper to the students on Monday morning and ask them to answer the first question. Students should answer one question a day for the week. Always remind the student to use part of the question in the answer.

Question: Who is chasing the cat?  Answer:  The dog is chasing the cat. 
Acceptable answer, however, encourage them to include unique information. Such as, Barney, the dog is chasing Griffin, the cat.

Happy Teaching!
