Target answering WH questions from short narrative and non-fiction texts. This resource perfect for your students who need help with reading comprehension and understanding that “who” means a person, “what” means a thing, and so on. There are two levels of each text included.
This resource contains:
•WH question visuals (pages 5-6)
•30 narrative texts, each with 2 different versions (pages 8-67)
•30 non-fiction texts, each with 2 different versions (pages 69-128)
Each worksheet has a short text on a topic and 6 questions (1 for each WH question type) on the bottom. There is a who, what, when, where, why, and how question for each text.
There are two different styles of worksheet for each text. The two versions are:
•Level 1: Multiple choice answers that can be cut and glued to answer each question
•Level 2: Same text and questions but no visuals and no answer choices (empty answer boxes)
On the level 2 worksheets, the text boxes are EDITABLE so that you can fill in the boxes on the computer without printing! This means this packet would be great for teletherapy or as a no-print option. To do this, you will need to open the packet in Adobe Reader.
To make teletherapy easier, this resource includes Boom cards™️ and Google Slides™️. The Boom cards™️ are an interactive, digital version of the level 1 worksheets so your students can drag and drop their answers into the correct boxes. The Google Slides™️ are a digital version of the level 2 worksheets. This version should be easier to pull up, type on, and draw on during your teletherapy sessions.
Leveling:
This resource allows for differentiation in several ways. In general, the narrative texts in this resource will be easier to understand compared to the non-fiction texts. Within each of those sections is level 1 and 2 as well (see above).

I purchased this to be able to continue working with my students from home on their language comprehension skills.

Elyssa R. –
I love this resource for both in-person and distance learning! The stories are not too long or too diffcult.

Karen M. –
This was great to use with the annotate feature on Zoom. No need to print-just draw right on the screen. Such a comprehensive resource. I love that it is leveled with choices for my younger students and the higher students can come up with their own answers.
Rachel Z. –
Great resource!!
Tara W. –
Thanks!
Stacie M. –
I have a son with autism and I have been using this therapy tool with him to work on “wh” questions. He’s enjoyed it and I have enjoyed working on these concepts with him. Great therapy tool!
Bauman Speech –
I bought this resource knowing it would be perfect for distance learning. It has different levels, which is exactly what I was looking for.

Abigail C. –
This resource is great for my elementary caseload!

Ashley S. –
Thank you for the addition of the google slides. This really facilitates teletherapy. Great resource overall. Thank you!
Melody E. –
I love all of her materials and the cues she writes here are the same that I would be using. It’s so helpful and clearly designed. The kids really get the material so much more when it’s setup this way. Thanks!

Many of my students are working on answering WH questions during literacy activities. I’m so excited to use this resource with them!

amy A. –
This is able to be differentiated for my students which is awesome for planning purposes!
diane W. –
Great stories for my students.
Miranda H. –
I sent these as work packets with detailed instructions for the parents/facilitator. I haven’t used these as an “online” resource but as a speech packet for my students. My families have at this time declined teletherapy, due to feeling overwhelmed with mandatory class meetings, so they opted for hard copy packets and I’ve been told they are great. I’m going to use some with my own son who receives speech therapy to reinforce his “wh” question skills.
Hannah M. –
This was a perfect intro into distance learning. I love how the passages aren’t too long so students feel like they can accomplish what’s on the page.
Talking Tails –
This resource is amazing for distance learning. I love the text boxes and the ability to target syntax while working on comprehension.

Great resource for listening comprehension.

These passages are so quick! We do one a session for a warm up!
Kimberly V. –
Any of the materials created by Speechy Musings are fantastic and worth every penny!
Margaret Griesmer –
Great at home resource to share with families for distance learning. Thank you! The google slides addition is a GAME-CHANGER
The SLP Experience –
I was able to screen share this with my students during virtual sessions. I like that the questions had the “helpful hints” under them (e.g., “WHO is a person”), because my students were able to use that when they were coming up with their answers.
Edit to add update: Shannon just added Boom cards to this resource and I’m so excited! Now I have another option for distance learning with my students.
Tammy Gibson –
EXACTLY what I was looking for – especially the icon page! Will be using this for distance learning and next year. Will purchase more if there is every another set! LOVE it

LINDSAY A. –
This has been a great resource for my students during distance learning and I can’t wait to use it in future Sessions as well! Thank you!
DeAnne S. –
I loved using this resource with my students while we were meeting together. The students loved it as well. I am looking forward to being able to use this great resource with students while we are implementing Distance Learning strategies.
Cheri V. –
This resource is great–I feel like it has filled a gap in my therapy “tool box” for working on WH questions and story comprehension! I particularly love that the visuals are built right into the resource and that it addresses two different skill levels. I am currently using it for distance learning during the COVID-19 school closures–I love the ability to send Boom Cards for students to practice on their own as well as during teletherapy sessions–but I imagine that I will get a lot of use out of both the Boom Cards and printable worksheets once school gets back in session!
marie fay R. –
Another awesome product. Thanks Shannon!
Kelly Z. –
I absolutely love all of your products! This product is so great for distance learning. Thank you for adding the google slides option.

Ashley J. –
Thank you!
Kimberly Hoffman –
Great resource!!
molly L. –
Love this resource! It is great to send in sections weekly for students to complete as assignments. Directions are easy for parents to understand, and the students are able to utilize skills learned in the classroom with WH questions at home!
Megan S. –
This resource is amazing to send home to my middle school students. Directions are straight forward and they know exactly what they need to do. Also super clear to parent what the students are working on in speech with this resource.
Haleh Pezeshkan –
Thank you! 🙂
Tara S. –
This resource was perfect not only to send home to my parents without technology access, but also to screen share with my students during teletherapy sessions. I love the visuals for answering wh- questions in the level one stories. I also love that it’s leveled.
Stavroula E. –
awesome thank you!
Robert Crumb –
These are awesome, thank you for.
Amanda K. –
Thank you so much for creating an all encompassing resource that will take me through this crisis and into the next school year. I also love the Boom Card addition! So kind to include those!
Rebecca A. –
This resource is great to use on Google Classroom with my students! I would love if you could add a digital copy!
Ida-Bar Speech and Language- Julie Dayley –
This was just what I was looking for to use with my students with lower reading levels. I love the format and how it helps visually guide students through the question answering process. Thank you!
Nikki M. –
This resource has been a lifesaver for me during distant learning. Not only is it editable, but there are also BOOM cards included! Both versions are very interactive, and I have been using them during my speech and language teletherapy sessions. I have students in grades 2nd through 5th, and I use it with all of them. I am able to differentiate, as you have a choice to give them multiple-choice answers, or have them write in the answers without multiple-choice. This is an activity I will use throughout my teletherapy sessions, as well as when we go back to school!
Asha C. –
Love this easy to use resource for answering “wh” questions.
Carly B. –
great material!
Jun K. –
I absolutely love the different levels available on this resource! Perfect for students who need more support and for students working at higher levels. The resource is also available in both Google Slides and Boom Cards! Can’t get any better than that!
Amanda Besteda –
Great resource! Thank you!
Denise S. –
Anther great resource made even better with the option of the Boom Card activity.
Amanda H. –
This has been such a useful resource for my kids working on recall and wh questions! Teletherapy has been made so much easier with great resources like this! Thank you for also making these into boom cards!
Tabitha newbold –
very useful to engage students in distance learning
Jacklyn H. –
I used it as part of resource packet to send to students last week. The pages are colorful, easy to read, directions are clear and I like having the choices for my students who have more language difficulties. I am very excited about the boom card so the pieces are interactive! I love everything by SpeechyMusings!
Jaylyn G. –
Great resource! Definitely loved the format and the two different level!
(FYI: “Selling Lemonade” has a name difference between the story and the questions)
JENNIFER S. –
I was so happy with the update for distance learning. I was at a loss for what I was going to do with my students working on WH questions for short stories. This was perfect!
Jennifer Pearlman –
Great resource!!
Jennifer H. –
I have used these for distant learning sessions and to email/mail to parents for continued support for learning at home. Great resource.

I love all things speechy musings so it wasn’t a surprise how awesome this resource is! I really like the length of the stories. My students have difficulty with recalling details, so having shorter texts to work with has been really helpful!
Alyssa W. –
These stories are perfect for my 4th grade students working on reading comprehension.
Amber H. –
This product is so amazing and comprehensive! I love that it has both narrative and nonfiction texts with open ended or multiple choice WH questions. Also how awesome is it that this resource comes in PDF, Slides and, Boom Card format!?

I love this one page short comprehension resource. These have been easy to send parents during the pandemic.
Beth O. –
Easy to use and having the option of the visuals at the bottom of the same page was very helpful for some students!
ELAR and Speech Resources –
I used this to send home for parents to work on with students, but feel it would be amazing to use via teletherapy, too. It’s easy to follow for parents to use at home, and the option to cut/paste makes it more interactive! Having the answer choices is great for parents who do not have the same level of cueing/prompting that SLPs do. Thank you!
Kseniya S. –
Love the stories. Great resource.
Christian I. –
I love that there is more than one level of questions. The visuals really helped the two kids that I used these with in particular. One of my students even felt comfortable reading the stories out loud.
Brooke M. –
I loved this resource! I was able to use it through distance learning, which was such a big help!
Venus S. –
Your products never disappoint!

Great visual supports for building question answering skills

Love the visuals included with each question!
Kathryn A. –
Great for distance learning – quick and easy resource for therapy AND progress monitoring.
Sherry M. –
This resource was extremely helpful in providing older students with materials to help with auditory comprehension deficits and delays . I found the content of the materials very relevant and expanded their language knowledge, assisted with vocabulary expansion , ability to develop their comprehension skills, understanding facts, main idea, ability to answer wh-questions and using prediction skills. I will be using these resources now and in the future for my students. Excellent resource!
Susan R. –
i like the passages and the questions that are prepared. Easy to use
Tiffany Smith –
This is a great resource!
Mister R Speech Room –
Perfect resource for my Zoom sessions!
Sarah K. –
This easy print and go resource was very helpful when making distance learning packets. I appreciated how you provided question type examples/info. It will be helpful for the students to have those “hints” since I am not there to provide cues!
Kymber B. –
Such a great resource. Easy to navigate with great instructions/recommendations. It’s also great to have a Boom card and Google Slides version!
Nicole Slough –
I like the clarity of the material. Will need feedback from student and parent

My students have loved this resource. It has worked well for reinforcement as well as learning.
Elizabeth G. –
Thanks!
Frugally Speaking SLP –
Thank you. I use a platform that doesn’t allow for interaction, but it was nice to have moveable items and a field of choices for my students to pick from and direct me to move the answer choices.
Kara B. –
I’ve used this resource during distance learning and it’s been great. There are a lot of stories included and I like that there are 2 versions of each story, with and without answer choices.
Clearly Speechie –
I love how it’s adapted to be used with adobe and has great visuals. The different levels that are targeted are awesome as well as my student progress through and make progress with the easier texts.
Anu A. –
My kids enjoy reading the story and answering the questions. It made me really think
Kristine W. –
I sent parts of this document home during our school closure.
Rebecca C. –
I loved this resource and I was able to use it with a wide variety of children on my caseload. I loved that it was an interactive PDF as well so I could use it face to face and online.
Laura V. –
You simply can’t go wrong with ANYTHING from Speechy Musings! Every single inch is useful. Beginning to end.
Karey H. –
This was so helpful when I was forced to provide work for students during mandatory closures! I felt my students would be able to work through these sheets with minimal assistance which was necessary as many of my families had essential workers. I uploaded them to Google Classroom with the Kami extension so kids could do the work electronically and submit them so I could “check” them.
Grace F. –
Great resource to send home for remote learning!
Erika M. –
It works great for targeting wh questions!
Julie S. –
Great resource!

Great resource.
Tara J. –
Great visuals and easy to use with distance learning
Mary H. –
This resource is perfect for working with my students via teletherapy–I especially appreciate the Boom Cards version! I also love that there are different levels so it’s adaptable for a larger variety of my caseload.
Peper’s Speech Place –
Awesome as always
Lynne T. –
This worked well with my older students. Just another resource that I have enjoyed during Remote Learning. If the students can’t read, it works well with me reading it.
Melody J. –
Great resource for targeting WH questions. I like that there are multiple levels.
Dana Monaghan –
A good resource to provide work to students at home.
Abby M. –
Awesome resource! Thank you!!
Melissa B. –
This is fantastic! I was able to email these to students to print and complete at home. This was a nice change from them doing “on-screen” learning. I was also able to use it on several Zoom calls and shared my screen to read it together and answer the questions verbally. I will continue to use these when things get back to normal and we return to school as well!
Katie F. –
As an SLP who works with an adult population with developmental disabilities, I LOVE Speech Musings products because they are often at the level that my clients need but are never overly juvenile-looking. This is a daily struggle that I face when searching for resources! This awesome product has cut down my prep time significantly, and can be used in so many ways outside of how it’s designed. I’ve used it to target yes/no questions by modifying the questions after reading the short paragraphs.
Kim K. –
This is an amazing resource, I’ve used it at least once a day during this distance learning with so much success! The stories are engaging, and the consistent format has been so beneficial to my kids who are learning how to listen and search for answers to wh-questions. Thank you Shannon, for another awesome resource!
Terre H. –
its nice to have resources like this to use with my children now that we are all home teachers.
Farah Lyn G. –
I love the visual cues! I have the Boom cards and love using them for distance learning.

Amanda F. –
This resource is great, my students have been engaged and the added digital feature is a plus that has helped me out during distance learning.
Hailey R. –
This is great for comprehension and teaching strategies, as well as story retell and identification of story parts. I just have to pair it with something motivating to help sustain attention. I wish all products had built-in reinforcers!
Amy M. –
Love that you included 2 different versions to scaffold support for students.
Granting Communication –
Your boom card releases have been a life saver during teletherapy!!! Thank you for all you are doing.

Having differentiated levels helped make this resource applicable for so many of my students. I thought that the stories were interesting and engaging. While I have not been able to see students in groups during closures, I really think that having so many options (open text boxes, multiple choice, and the visual reminders for WH question meanings) will allow for scaffolding and varying levels of ability to work on the same activity as a group.
The amount of research and work put into this product really shows!

I have used this resource on Seesaw with students. I use the initial graphic as a sorting mat and have the students sort their answers into what type of question answer it is. Then they read and use the answer key to answer the questions. This has been incredibly useful in teaching what the WH questions mean in response to a reading passage. I love everything by Speechy Musings. These resources are always top quality with student and teacher needs in mind. Thank you!

Joann L. –
I used this product with students in both small groups and 1:1. The kids followed along and engaged great with the stories! For younger students they benefited from the “answer key” at the bottom of the story and doing some “multiple choice” styled responses; with older students they practiced their comprehension skills and wh- questions. Students enjoyed the stories and were able to draw personal connections to characters in stories and learn about various topics.

I use this resource to help with understanding literal comprehension questions. This is a skill that is still needed for my students in the learning support reading classroom. I love that is explains to the students when you see “Who” or “Where” or any of the “W” questions, they need to answer with a person or place, etc…
Very helpful!
Jenny N. –
I bought this a while ago, but never left a review. I loved using this in-person with my students because the comprehension questions were straightforward and there were little visuals to help my students across the spectrum remember how to answer those specific WH questions. Right when the pandemic hit, this resource was easily adaptable to use over zoom, but I’m even more happy to find that it was updated so that students are directly type in the document (so cool!).
Keli M. –
Great for my speech/language students and they like the added visuals for answering WH- questions.

Kayla Megan –

Shelli S. –
This packet has been a lifesaver! Most of my students are working on answering questions about a reading passage. This is my go-to resource! I like that it has 2 levels of difficulty for answering questions. The visuals are so helpful in reminding students what each question word means so that they know what information to look for in the passage. I like that I can give students a choice between the fiction and non-fiction stories. There’s a good variety of topics in the non-fiction stories as well. So, students have even more choices for finding passages that are of interest to them.
Kristen R. –
I used this resource every day during our mandated school closures. The amount of stories included is incredible! The WH comprehension questions can be used in so many different ways. My students love the different subject material.

Mackenzie L. –
I love having this no prep activity for students that I only have 10 minutes with or for when I’m on the go and haven’t had a chance to plan an entire theme! I love the different levels, as well as the options for mediation (giving the word box on the bottom versus not, giving the visual of “who” “what” “when”, etc). It has so many ways to give a hierarchy of mediation/cues. Such a great purchase!
Billie H. –

This activity is perfect for my older elementary school students working on listening comprehension and higher level language skills. I love that the visuals are consistent with other products she sells (since I have so many!) and that the resource provides scaffolded support with and without visuals/choices. I also appreciate that I can type into the textbox with the PDF format, which is perfect for virtual sessions.
Lana M. –
Shorter passages that work on wh questions are always useful!
Janet M. –
I like that Shannon provides “step up” & “step down” activities, based on the student’s abilities. For those requiring more support, they feel success sorting the answers. For those who are more independent, there is a less structured way to engage with the activity.
Leslie Morris –
Engaging stories. Great for wh- questions and I like the two levels for answering questions.

I have been using these stories during small group sessions and I really like them.

This is such a great resource to target comprehension questions. I have a lot of autistic students in our high-ability program who can read high-level texts but really struggle with comprehension. I’ve been able to use this resource with even my 1st and 2nd grade readers with great success. I love how each story has a multiple-choice options as well as an open-ended option so that you can have students needing different levels of support in the same group using the same story.

Overall great resource! I used this with EL immmigrant students that have been in the US about 1 year and it was a little harder than I thought it would be for most of them. We practiced the Wh- questions a lot before doing this, but the readings were a little advanced for some students; they got caught up in not knowing the words in the text so they couldn’t answer the questions.

I really like the different “levels” of difficulty and using the digital resource when traveling between schools. This is also a wonderful resource for letting my students “take lead” by gathering the supplies they need to cut, glue, etc. for the correct answers. I love using this with my 2-12th+ grade caseload. Great resource!!!

Sunny Day Speech Academy –

Connie H. –
My students didn’t totally understand the question words and what they truly asking. Finding material to help me teach and practice the WH question words was difficult especial for 4th graders. This material was a wonderful beginning. The short text made it so I was working on the question words and not the reading. I hope Speechy Musings keeps up the great word and develop even more for upper grades

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times — Speechy Musings products are the best. This one is no exception, and it’s one of my most-used materials from this school year. I have so. many. students. working on answering wh- questions and this is such a great way to target this skill! It’s functional and corresponds directly to academic skills across domains, and it provides opportunities to explicitly teach comprehension strategies (e.g., reread the text, underline where you found the answer, etc). The option for prepopulated answers are great for scaffolded practice. Worth every penny & worth having in your SLP toolbox!
