Verbatim Questions

 For this week we were asked to write some verbatim questions that our host teacher asks and some verbatim questions that students ask. I have kindergarten for my 75 hour clinical. In general, I noticed that my host teacher asks questions that require basic recall of information, such as who, what, why when, and where. In addition, I noticed that there is more questions asked and discussion going on during guiding reading. Most of the students questions revolve around lunch and their shoes! However, I did observe that few students will ask for help when they don't understand something. 

Teacher Questions:
What's the weather today?
If today is Monday, and yesterday was Sunday, what will tomorrow be?
How many tens are 31? How many ones are in 31?
 What does the author of a book do? (Guided Reading)
What does the illustrator of the book do? (Guided Reading)
How is Maya and Julius alike? different? (Guided Reading)
What character would you be and why? (Guided Reading)
How is Julius different from other pigs on a farm? (Guided Reading)
How many ways can we show the number 10? (Math)
Who can go to the board and show me the word little, am, I....? (Sight words)

Student Questions:
When is lunch?
Can you tie my shoe?
Are we going outside for recess?
Can I go to the bathroom?
Can you help me?
