Questions about Getting Ready to Share

What does the Getting Ready to Share worksheet cover?

It practises planning what you will say before you say it — 2 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core SL.K.1: Take turns talking and listening in a group conversation. The instruction to pupils is “Draw in the space, then write on the lines”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Which Common Core standard does Getting Ready to Share practise?

Does Getting Ready to Share come with an answer key?

Yes. All 2 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
