Level 3 – Question and Answer Flow Practice Sheets
1
Learning the Question & Answer Flows
These exercises are designed to help you learn how the Question and Answer Flows are constructed in the
Parent Help Booklet. In the Question and Answer Flow, a series of oral questions and answers determines
the role each word plays in the sentence being analyzed. By using questions for every word in the sentence,
your child is able to completely analyze the sentence.
The title at the top of each page will tell you which skill is being introduced. As you can see, it is a gradual
process that begins with finding the subject noun and verb. Once a part of speech is introduced, it is not left
behind. As each part of speech is learned, it is repeatedly applied in daily exercises throughout the year.
Directions:
1. First, read the sentence listed at the top of the Q & A Flow box.
2. Next, read the question.
3. Then, write the answer to the question in the blank. Use the sentence at the top of the box to help you
answer the question. Work through the remaining questions in the box in the same way. This is called
classifying the sentence.
4. Finally, look at the sentence at the bottom of the box. Classify the sentence again, using the same
questions and answers in the exact order. But this time, you will label the words in the sentence with the
appropriate abbreviations for the parts of speech. (The abbreviations are shown in parentheses in each
Question and Answer Flow provided.)
Note: Answer keys are found at the end of this section on pages 17-22. You
may also use the Parent Help Booklet as a key.
