How To Start Question of the Day

Getting started with, and finding time for, the Question of the Day isn’t as difficult as you may think! There are a range of ways in which you can integrate Questions of the Day in a fun way.

For example, in the classroom, you could do this during arrival, as an attendance board, during morning meeting, or a cool-down activity after recess.  You could also use it as a time filler throughout the day, or an activity to do during dismissal with the kids. If the kids are having a bad day, ask a funny question. Young children always think it’s the funniest thing if you mention bodily functions, but maybe that’s not appropriate for the school day.

You can have meaningful conversations with simple questions at home, too. Ask the question of the day in the morning, before breakfast, or every night during dinner.  These questions would be great conversation starters for family members to do with kids. The best thing about these interesting questions is that the kids cannot have wrong answers. One-word responses, such as yes or no, is the best way to take the pressure off of young children. To get started with Question of the Day for kids, you will need the digital or printable cards (below), name cards, and yes/no labels (included) for their answer choice.

When you are ready to start Question of the Day in the classroom, find your favorite place to hang where the kids will record their one-word answers.

• Arrival – The kiddos enter the classroom, hang up their coats and bookbags, turn in their folders, and begin working on morning work.
• Morning Work – While they are doing morning tubs, or review work, my helper of the day calls a table over answer the question of the day.  He/she reads the question, and each student answers by placing their name card under yes or no.  When done, my helper gets the next table of kiddos.  This process takes about 10-15 minutes total, which is a perfect time filler while we are waiting for the breakfast eaters to straggle in.
• Morning Meeting – Now that the most time consuming part is already done, morning meeting is where all of the learning takes place.  I review the Question of the Day, either by reading it myself, or calling on a student to read it.   We then quickly do a count and comparison of each answer.  The kiddos can answer “how many”, “which has more/less”, and “how many more do we need to make yes equal to no (vice versa)”.

After doing a count and compare with the answer graph, I call on a few students to explain their answer using a complete sentence.  For example, Abby might say “No, I would not climb a beanstalk, because there might be a giant at the top.”.

I like to call on a student from each answer.  While Abby said yes, Colt said “Yes, I would climb a beanstalk, because there might be a cool castle at the top.”. Having the different points of views expands the kiddos perspectives, and is an opportunity to teach them about respecting others opinions – even when they are different from our own.

Daily Conversation Starters 

It’s true, the yes or no questions inside the Question of the Day digital and printable resource are not open-ended questions. However, these simple, funny questions are actually thoughtful questions that can work as daily conversation starters.  They are also good questions for journal writing topics.

How can a close-ended question lead to a fun conversation? Next time you ask a child if they would live in a castle all by themselves, let them first respond with yes or no. Then, lots of questions can be asked based on their response. Start with asking why they said yes or no. It’s a excellent way to build language within a classroom community or the whole family.

Printable and Digital Questions of the Day Kids Love

If you are teaching online, tutor through virtual learning, or teach remote learning, you will LOVE the awesome questions on the digital slides as conversation starters. You will not need a special mobile app for this fun activity. The digital version included in the Question of the Day resource will be the ultimate list of great questions for kids in preschool, kindergarten, and first grade.

Question of the Day kids also expands on math and writing lessons. For example, simply by answering the questions, your kiddos create a personalized graph that is all about them.  This, friend, is where the magic happens!

When the kiddos see that you want to know more about them, they are more than happy to share their thoughts and own feelings. Once they share their thoughts, and realized they have a visual representation (the completed graph), they instantly become eager to count and compare.

Now, you are suddenly the rock star teacher leading them through a math lesson that they didn’t see coming.  Better yet, you have now inspired them to read, talk, and write or draw about that same topic!

Check out how Ms. Pennell uses this Question of the Day in her classroom.

She cut her PreK kids’ pictures out, added magnetic tape to the back, and has them move their picture under the yes/no section of the board.  You can see she has her question cards hanging on a command hook off to the side.

Question of the Day – Pocket of Preschool

Question of the Day is a fun activity to get kids learning RIGHT when they get into the classroom each morning.  It is a great classroom management technique to get the school day on track right from the start.

Students quickly learn the morning routine in my classroom:  put their belongings in their cubby, answer the Question of the Day, put their lunch in the refrigerator, sign in and do the table time activity.  On each cubby, there is a name tag and a star with the student’s name. It is attached with Velcro.  It is a visual reminder for them to answer the question after they put their belongings away.  It a great trick I learned when I first started teaching.

My Question of the Day was on my refrigerator in my full day classroom. I put magnet tape on the back of the stars and sentence pieces. Students put their lunch away and answer the question in the same spot.   I made the T-Chart with tape.

In my new classroom, I put my Question of the Day on a metal oil drip pan.  You can buy them from Walmart in the tools section.  It was silver so I painted with black chalkboard paint.  I also have my visual arrival routine next to the question if they need reminding of what to do next.

I always start each year with the pattern question, “Are you wearing (color word)?”  I change the color word every Monday.  This helps my young students learn the pattern sentence and the words yes/no.  I also model and encourage students to point to each word as they read the question.  My goal is for students to be able to answer the question independently.

**Just a note: the color words now have a clip art paint sample next to the word to show color variances.**

Students are learning MANY skills during Question of the Day.  I listed all the language and literacy objectives/standards Question of the Day meets.

If you take time during the day to interpret and analyze the question, you will be hitting math objectives and standards too.  Take the time to do this part!  It only takes a few minutes.

How do I come up with questions to ask?  You can ask anything you choose!  I always strive to link them to literacy concepts and sneak in math sometimes too!

Try a pattern question about letter sounds, “Does your name begin with the same sound as ___?” I change the sound card every other day to give students lots of practice with beginning sounds.  I like making questions about their names because every student has to think to answer the question.

I have tried making questions where the answer is the same for everyone, and it was not my favorite experiment.  Here is an example, “What letter does the word bird start with?” Answers “B” or “K”.  Once three or four kids answered the question, students would automatically put their name next to their friends without even reading the question.   No learning was happening.

A question to get students counting, comparing and learning about long and short words is “Do you have (number) letters in your name?”. Students are counting every morning, talking about “more or less than” and talking about long and short words!  It’s awesome!

Love pocket charts?  Then put the question in one!  Pocket charts are great to place to put your Question of the Day.  I just love this black pocket chart!  A fun trick I have done to make my T-Chart is to tape a piece of ribbon at the to the chart.

Keeping everything organized is my jam, and it makes me happy!  Below are a few tips to organize your questions.  It makes changing the question super easy and quick.  I like to store all my questions in this three drawer organizer.

Name Stars & Cards

You can use name stars (shown in the photos above) or use name cards for the Question of the Day.  Everyone is always asking me for them so I made BOTH for you and they’re FREE too!

Grab FREE Editable Name Stars HERE

Grab the FREE Editable Name Cards HERE

Again, attach the stars or name cards to use on their cubbies name tags with Velcro!  This gives students a visual reminder of what to do first when they get to school and trust me, it works!  Put a piece of magnet tape or dots to the back if your question of the day is on a metal surface.

To help students learn their names, color code your classroom!  Assign each student a color.  Make as many things as possible for that child in their color such as their job chart clip, question star, cubby name tag, folders, and/or journals they use.

Quick Tip:  Assign different colors to students who have the same first letter.  This way both Anna and Alison don’t have pink stars.  Anna could be pink and Alison could be orange.  Anna will know or you can prompt her to look for a pink star with the first letter A.  This is also helpful if you have two students with the same name (make their stars different colors).

Check out my Question of the Day sets in my store.  I did all the creating for you so you can enjoy your weekends again!  If you need all of them, get the bundle and SAVE over 20%!  There are oodles of questions (enough for the entire school year).  Click on the picture to check them out.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What are the working hours of the kindergarten?

Answer: Working hours of the kindergarten from 7. 00-19.00 Timely arrival at the kindergarten is a necessary condition for the correct organization of the educational process. Educators are ready to talk with you in the morning before 8.15 and in the evening after 18.30. At other times, the teacher works with a group of children, and it is not recommended to distract him!

Question: If a child missed a few days in kindergarten, do I need to bring a certificate from a doctor afterwards?

Answer: If the child has not attended for more than five working days, then a doctor’s certificate must be brought. If up to five days have been missed, then a certificate is not required.

Question: Do I need a sports uniform for physical education?

Answer: Every child should have a uniform for physical education: T-shirt, comfortable shorts, socks, sports shoes.

Question: From what time can I contact a speech therapist?

Answer: Normally a child starts talking at 1. 5-2 years old. If you haven’t started talking at the age of 2, you should already come for a consultation in order to identify the reasons and start doing something. If the child began to speak and you are worried about his “porridge in the mouth”, you can also seek advice – to take measures to prevent incorrect sound pronunciation.
