A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Print page 1 and reserve the suggested-question key. The answers belong to a sample speaker, so learners do not need to supply private details.
- Model My name is Ana to What is your name? Compare Where are you from? with Where do you live?
- Write all ten questions with question marks, selecting a question word that matches the information given.
- Compare with page 2, accepting other grammatical questions that naturally elicit the answer. Distinguish What do you do? from a question about an activity at this moment.
Support and extension
Support with a question-word bank and separate be / do frames. Extend through a fictional interview; age, family and location disclosures should remain optional.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
