Interrogatives Practice Activities
Printable interrogatives worksheets for Nursery, LKG and UKG children to practise asking and answering simple question words.
Practice that builds confidence
What children learn
In this Nursery, LKG and UKG question words collection, children practise using interrogatives such as who, what, where, when, why and how in everyday speech. The focus is on understanding what each question word asks, not memorising long grammar rules.
The printable activities may include picture-based questions, matching, circling the correct question word, completing short oral sentences and choosing suitable answers. They help young learners connect questions with people, places, actions, time, reasons and ways of doing things.
Interrogatives are words we use to ask questions. At this early level, children learn that who asks about a person, what asks about a thing or action, where asks about a place, when asks about time, why asks for a reason and how asks the way something happens. The worksheets keep the language close to home: “Who is sleeping?”, “Where is the ball?” or “How do you go to school?”
From picture talk to sentence sense
The practice usually begins with looking at a picture and answering aloud. Children then match question words to simple clues, circle the best interrogative, or complete a short question. This progression suits Nursery, LKG and UKG because it moves from listening and speaking to recognising words on paper. Teachers and parents can read the questions first, then gradually encourage children to identify the question word independently.
Parent routine at home
Choose one page and sit with your child in a quiet corner. Point to the picture, ask the question naturally, and let the child answer in a full spoken phrase if possible: “The girl is eating,” or “The cat is under the table.” After the page, play a quick home game: ask one who, one what and one where question about objects in the room. Keep the tone conversational so the child sees question words as useful language.
Classroom uses for teachers
These worksheets work well for morning language practice, small-group reinforcement, oral English activities and literacy centres. A teacher can display a picture, ask children to raise a card for the correct interrogative, and then use the printable page for individual practice. Pair work also helps: one child asks a question from the sheet, and the other answers using the picture clue.
Common errors to watch for
Young learners may use what for every question, confuse who and where, or answer “yes/no” when the question needs information. Some children may know the answer but not understand the question word. When this happens, repeat the meaning gently: “Who means a person. Which person is it?” Avoid over-correcting grammar in long sentences; first build clear question-word understanding.

Why iBloom worksheets help
The iBloom activities use familiar scenes, simple wording and repeated practice so children can notice patterns without feeling rushed. A child-friendly strategy is to remember: who-person, where-place, what-thing or action. Once these three are strong, add when, why and how through stories, daily routines and classroom conversations.
Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
Which interrogatives are introduced in these worksheets?
The activities focus on common question words such as who, what, where, when, why and how. For younger children, who, what and where can be practised first because they are easier to connect with pictures.
Are these worksheets suitable for Nursery children who cannot read yet?
Yes. Nursery children can use the pages with adult support. A parent or teacher can read the question aloud while the child points, matches, circles or answers orally using the picture clues.
How do I explain the difference between who and where?
Use a simple reminder: who means a person and where means a place. For example, in a park picture, “Who is playing?” asks for the child, while “Where is the child playing?” asks for the park.
Should my child answer in full sentences?
Full sentences are helpful but not compulsory at the beginning. If the child answers “dog,” you can model “The dog is running” and let the child repeat when ready.
How can teachers use these interrogatives pages in class?
Teachers can use them for oral questioning, small-group English practice, literacy centres or revision after a question words lesson. Picture prompts make it easy for children to participate even if their writing skills are still developing.
