Question words worksheets

Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

Question words open the door to answers: who asks about people, what about things, where about places, when about times, why about reasons, and how about the way.

Two grades, one set of sentences: both print from the same 40. Print one here, or open a grade for examples and teaching notes.

Print by grade

  1. Kindergarten Core grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

    Kindergartners choose the question word that fits: who for people, what for things, where for places, when for times. The sentence's answer-shape picks the word.

  2. 1st grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    First graders use all six (who, what, where, when, why, how) and write the fitting word to open each question.
