Asking AND Telling

Can you use the same words to build completely different sentences?  Yes you can!  Look at these two:

Is the cat brown?
The cat is brown.

I've updated one of my word work stations that I like to use with a few of my firsties who need a little challenge.  


Students will choose a card which has sentences scrambled and then they will try to come up with both an asking and telling sentence.  I have included an anchor chart (for instruction) and I can student instruction cards (for independence).


Each page is in color and black & white.  (I love the colors but let's face it - ink is expensive!!)

You can find this unit HERE at my TPT store.

If you already own this please head over to your purchases and re-download.  As always, I'll send a copy to the first 3 people who comment on this post :)
