No, this isn't correct

Slide 9 - Quizvraag

Deze slide heeft geen instructies

Explanation:
1: Use of i for ik = always a capital letter: I.
2: Minor grammatical issue. Here's a corrected version:
"I think that I am suited for the course because I have always been good at the language, and, as I said, I think it would be a smart choice for the future."

Add a comma after "language" to separate the clauses and add a comma after "and" to separate the clauses in the second part of the sentence for better clarity and readability.

Slide 28 - Tekstslide

Deze slide heeft geen instructies

Explanation: sentence 1
Answer
How often do you do the cooking?

Why? 
Missing the auxiliary verb "do" to form a grammatically correct question in English. 
In the corrected sentence, the auxiliary verb "do" is added before the subject "you," which makes it a proper question in English syntax. 

Slide 29 - Tekstslide

Auxiliary verb = hulpwerkwoord 

Explanation: sentence 2
Answer
Do you usually spend your weekends with your family?

Why? 
The sentence lacks the appropriate question word (e.g., "Do" or "Are") to form a grammatically correct question in English. 
By adding the auxiliary verb "do" at the beginning of the sentence, it forms a proper yes/no question in English.

Slide 30 - Tekstslide

Auxiliary verb = hulpwerkwoord 

Explanation: sentence 3
Answer
Have you managed to get a present yet?

Why? 
The sentence is grammatically incorrect due to the placement of "yet." In English, "yet" is usually placed in negative statements or questions to indicate an action that hasn't happened up to a specific point in time. 
In the corrected sentence, "yet" is correctly positioned to form a question about whether or not someone has obtained a present up to the current point in time.

Slide 31 - Tekstslide

Auxiliary verb = hulpwerkwoord 

Explanation: sentence 4
Answer
Should parents limit the amount of time their children spend in front of a screen?

Why? 
The sentence is a statement, not a question. If you intend it to be a question, it should be rephrased with a question word such as "Should" at the beginning. 

Slide 32 - Tekstslide

Auxiliary verb = hulpwerkwoord 

Explanation: sentence 5
Answer
How many pets did you say you had at home?

Why? 
The sentence is grammatically incorrect. When asking about the quantity of something, such as pets, you should use "How many" instead of "How much." The noun "pets" is a countable noun. 
In the corrected sentence, "How many" is used to inquire about the quantity of pets, and the word order is rearranged for proper syntax.

Slide 33 - Tekstslide

Auxiliary verb = hulpwerkwoord 
Remind students that auxiliary and modal verbs should go before the subject.
Explanation: sentence 6
Answer
How have you become so successful?

Why? 
The sentence is grammatically incorrect because it lacks the auxiliary verb "have" and proper word order for forming a question in English.

In the corrected sentence, the auxiliary verb "have" is used to form a question about the process or method by which someone has achieved success, and the word order is adjusted for proper syntax.

Slide 34 - Tekstslide

Auxiliary verb = hulpwerkwoord 
Remind students that auxiliary and modal verbs should go before the subject.
How many did you get correct?
