A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Use learner pages 1–2; keep the answer key on page 3 separate until feedback.
- Read the flat-viewing exchange and locate where, if and whether in the reports.
- Complete the landlord's questions and transform direct questions, removing do/does/did from the embedded clause.
- Report three questions, including both types, then ask and report a partner's work, study or travel questions.
Support and extension
Accept whether for if. Reports normally end with full stops; unchanged tenses can be natural for current information, although these tasks request backshift.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
