Asking Questions | Se poser des questions

Asking questions will help your child to clarify his/her ideas and deepen his/her understanding.
Sharing your questions about a book with your child encourages him/her to ask questions.

While you are reading with your child, you might say…

• I wonder what… | Je me demande…
• I wonder why… | Je me demande pourquoi…
• I don’t understand why… | Je ne comprends pas pourquoi…
• What does this mean? | Qu’est-ce que ceci veut dire?
• Why…? | Pourquoi… ?
• How come…? | Pourquoi… ?
