1) following game rules,
2) learning how to take turns appropriately,
3) attending to whose turn it is,
4) responding to targeted Wh-questions for that week and
5) learning how to use correct subject pronouns when taking turns (my turn and your turn).

Wh- questions are an essential part of everyday life and their importance goes far beyond speech development. Learning to ask and answer wh- questions helps children:
* Build conversation skills

* Stimulate vocabulary development
* Demonstrate an understanding of something new
* Promote reasoning, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills
