Questions help kids learn more abut the world around them. Most questions start with a word that begins with the wh- consonant pattern (what, when, where, which, who, or why). The need to ask these questions usually starts around the age of two years old. The word "what" is commonly used to obtain more information about an object, action, or idea. The word "where" is focused when asking about places. The word "when" is used to find out about time or dates. "Who" is always used to find out more about a person or in some cases and animal (pet). When looking for the purpose of something students will use the word "why". These worksheets will get students more familiar with asking questions that are relevant to their situation.

What are Wh- questions?


Wh- questions are essential questions in the English literature. Wh- questions are mainly used to gather information about the topic. Commonly asked five Wh- questions are why, when, where, what, and how. Mostly in written content, the questions are asked in mind and only the response of these questions is discussed. Given below is an in-depth explanation of all these five questions along with their example:


When


When is used to gather information about the time of accident or event. It is a very essential question to be asked, especially in case of true stories and biography. Some questions along with their response that use when to gather information include "When did that incident occur?; the incident occurred last night; when does Nish arrive? ; she arrives at 7:00 PM etc."


Why


Why is used to ask about the reason that how something happened or to clarify why someone does something. An example regarding the use of this component of Wh- questions are "why James robbed the bank; James robbed the bank because he does not have money to pay for his child's operation"


Where


Where is used to gather information about the location of accident, person or event? Without information about the location, it is difficult to clarify the thought in many cases. Some Wh- questions that are using component where are "where was James going?; James was going to the library, where did that incident occurred; the incident occurred near the high school"


What


Out of the Wh- questions, this question is the most crucial one. It is used mostly to gather information about the name of a person, object or any other thing. For example, "what is the name of the character's friend? Jane was the name of his friend"


How


In Wh- questions h stands for how. This component is used to ask about the condition for example "how did he fell; he fell because he did not see the stone".
