What this lesson teaches
To answer a question, we can think about what we know or look in a book. Then we write the answer.
Worked examples
Example 1
Question: "What do birds build?" We remember or look, then write: "Birds build nests."
Example 2
Question: 'Where do bears sleep in winter?' Look it up, then write: 'Bears sleep in dens.'
Example 3
Write the answer in a whole sentence. 'Dens' alone does not tell anyone what the question was.
Practice questions
- Think of a question about animals.
- Look in a book or remember the answer.
