Evaluate the EQ of students

Task 6

Creator of EQ: Dina Shaisultanova

Essential question: How can fairytales help comprehend reported speech?

To evaluate essential questions I used following criteria:

1.Is it open-ended?

Yes, it is. It requires more than one thought and it typically will not have a single answer.

2.Is it provocative?

Yes, it is. Because students will be interested to learn grammar material by reading or listening fairytales.
