This is a great activity to practice WH Questions in a structured way and with little or no prep.
1. When to Practice WH Questions Scenes?
Your child or student will be ready to practice WH Questions using this resource when he is capable of answering all WH Questions including What, When, Who, Where, Why, and How.
Once he masters answering all WH Questions individually, you can start practicing them all together and mixing them up.
NB: If your child hasn’t fully mastered WH Questions, here is a complete guide to learning WH
Questions for beginners. In this guide, you will learn everything there is about WH questions; when to teach them, how to assess the child, how to teach them, and in which order, a list of 200 WH question examples, and other free resources to practice with your child.
To make sure your child is ready, start with an easy scene like the sleeping cats, on any other topic you feel he can easily understand and answer, to test your child’s ability to answer multiple WH Questions at once. We provide more detailed information on how to teach your child to answer WH Questions Scenes below in the ‘How to teach’ section.

3. How to teach your child WH Questions using Scenes?
This activity includes 30 picture scenes with a total of 232 questions to practice WH Questions with your child or student by following these steps:
- print the file and cut the pages into halves.
- paste the picture with the related questions back to back and laminate them so that the picture is on one side and questions on the other side.
In order to use this free resource that teaches WH Questions to children with Autism or Speech delay using Scenes:
1. Start by choosing 15 scenes with topics that your child can relate to.
2. Then choose one type of WH Questions (such as What Questions) and ask only that type of WH Questions from the questions on the back of the scene.
3. Once your child successfully answers that question type on all 15 scenes, you can move to the next question type (such as Who) until he can answer all of them individually (What, Who, Where, When, Why, How).
4. Then choose two types of WH Questions (such as What and Who questions) and ask only those two from the questions on the back of the scene.
5. Once mastered, choose another WH Question to work on and ask all three together (such as What, Who, and Where)
6. Keep adding new WH Questions until you ask all of them together.
By using this procedure, you can successfully teach your child to answer multiple WH Questions at once in less time and with less frustration.
