FAQ

What is 'restating the question' and why is it an important skill?

Restating the question means beginning your answer with the key words from the question itself — for example, 'What is your favorite animal?' becomes 'My favorite animal is...' — ensuring students write in complete, on-topic sentences.

How does restating the question prepare students for standardized tests?

Many standardized tests at the 2nd grade level and beyond require full-sentence written responses, and restating the question ensures students answer directly and completely without writing fragments.

Is this skill used in reading comprehension and content-area writing?

Yes, restating the question is a cross-curricular skill used in ELA reading responses, science journals, social studies activities, and any task that requires written short answers.
