What do you already know about forming questions in English?

Yes/No Questions

Yes/No questions are answered with 'yes' or 'no'. E.g., 'Do you like pizza?' 'Is she your friend?'

Wh-Questions

Wh-questions ask for specific information. E.g., 'What is your name?' 'Where do you live?'

Using 'Do/Does'

'Do' and 'does' help form questions. E.g., 'Do you play football?' 'Does he like cake?'

Using 'Is/Are'

'Is' and 'are' are used in questions. E.g., 'Is it raining?' 'Are they coming?'

Using 'Can'

'Can' asks about ability or permission. E.g., 'Can you swim?' 'Can I leave early?'

Using 'Did'

'Did' is for past actions. E.g., 'Did you see the movie?' 'Did he call you?'

Using 'Have to'

'Have to' shows necessity. E.g., 'Do you have to go now?' 'Does she have to study?'

Forming Accurate Questions

Practice forming questions accurately by rearranging words. E.g., 'You do play tennis?' becomes 'Do you play tennis?'

Speaking Practice

Pair up and ask each other questions from the lesson. Answer fluently and accurately.
