What's The Matter? - Science Booklet

Sentence Types

The past few weeks we have been focusing on sentence types. This week the students became interviewers and interviewees. Each student wrote a series of interview questions about what they would want to know about their classmate. Then the students worked with a partner and wrote telling sentences to go along with their questioning sentences.
