Exercise 7
Purpose: to help students write questions using cues
· Direct students to the cues. Ask " Which questions will be information questions and which will be yes / no questions?" Elicit or provide 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 are information questions——they have question words. 4 and 8 are yes / no questions. Revise formation of questions in present continuous. If you feel your students are ready, you may skip this step.
· Say "Write questions about the people in Exercise 2, using the cues". Monitor as students write questions, offering assistance as needed. If students need support, you may have them work in pairs.
· Go over the answers, asking individual students to read the questions aloud.
Answers
1. Who is visiting his grandma?
2. Whose computer is Wu Qi using?
3. Who is doing her hair?
4. Is Chris sending a picture?
5. Who is standing beside Yao Ming?
6. Who is Wu Qi's uncle visiting?
7. What is Jeff watching?
8. Are Chris and Wu Qi talking on the phone?
· If time allows, do Workbook page 86, Exercise 2. Alternately, assign for homework.
Expansion: Don't Stop!
Note: Use this activity to give students more practice. Have students work in pairs to form more questions using the statements in the instant messages in Exercise 2.
Exercise 8
Purpose: to help students ask and answer questions in the present continuous tense
