Warm-up

Which question words do you already know?

Make a list on the whiteboard with the class.

Question words

But....

What if the answer is yes or no?

Can you do that with one of the

WH-question words?

Try forming a question to ask me, using the word : "do" or "does"

How to form a yes/no question

You place do or does at the front of the sentence followed by the verb:

I like English class -> Do you like English class?

Then the answer is yes or no.

How to form a yes/no question

Using do/does:

Do you like school/does he like pizza ?

Using "to be" : 

Are you ok?

Am I too late?

When do you use "do"
and when do you use "does"
in a sentence or question?

1. always use do
2. does for I and you, do for he/she/it
3. do for I and you, does for he/she/it
4. always use does

Turn this sentence into a question:
I like Doritos

Now think of a topic you would like to ask me a question about. 

Make a question using a wh-word

• what 
• why 
• where 
• who 
• when
• which 
• how 

The correct question for the answer
"Yes, I like Netflix"
is:

1. Does you like Netflix?
2. Do you like Netflix?
3. Did you like Netflix?
4. Do you liked Netflix

The correct question for the answer
"Yes, he plays tennis"
is:

1. Does he play sports?
2. Does he plays sports?
3. Did he played sports?
4. Did he plays sports?

The correct question for the answer:
"Yes, I sent him a text"
is:

1. Do you send him a text?
2. Did you send him a text?
3. Does you send him a text?
4. Are you send him a text?

Other types of questions

• When there is a form of "to be" in the sentence (am, are, is, was, were), 

you use that form at the front of the sentence: 

She is a great tennis player

-> Is she a great tennis player?

• when a sentence has 2 verbs, place the first verb in front:

 I have met him before 

-> Have I met him before?

Change the sentence into a question
The sun is shining today.

Change the sentence into a question:
You are at home.

Use a WH-word to make a question to this answer:
"My books are in my locker"

Review: game time!
