The Interrogative Structure

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents a series of words in disarray, with the task for students being to rearrange them into coherent questions. Each set of scrambled words is designed to become an interrogative sentence once the words are placed in the correct order. Students are also reminded to punctuate the sentences appropriately, emphasizing the written form of questions. An image of a cartoon detective is featured at the top, suggesting the theme of investigation or inquiry that accompanies the task of forming questions.

The worksheet aims to teach students the structure of interrogative sentences in English. It focuses on the placement of auxiliary verbs, question words, and the subject-verb order typical to English questions. By engaging with this exercise, students enhance their understanding of how different types of sentences are formed and become familiar with the punctuation that distinctively marks a question. Additionally, this activity encourages critical thinking as students must decipher the logical sequence that turns a jumble of words into a meaningful question.
