Restating Questions Effectively in ELA

Mrs. Kishner's video tutorial teaches students how to restate questions in their answers. The video outlines three steps: identifying the question word, finding key words, and combining them to form an answer. The tutorial includes examples with questions about cats and ice cream to illustrate the process. Students are encouraged to use specific supplies, such as colored pencils, to help organize their thoughts.

What are the four supplies needed for this lesson?

• Notes titled 'Restate the Question', a regular pencil, a green pencil, and a red pencil

• A notebook, a regular pencil, a green pencil, and a red pencil

• Notes titled 'Restate the Question', a blue pen, a green pen, and a red pen
