Understanding Questions

What are we learning today?

You will understand a simple question and find the right answer.

Explanation

• Read the whole question first.
• Find the question word. Who asks about a person. Where asks about a place. How asks about the way.
• Circle the key words, for example "week", "friends" or "water".
• Then look for the answer.

Examples

1. Who has plans to travel with friends?
2. Where is Simon going to go? He is going to Brazil.
3. How is Simon going to travel? He is going to fly.

Remember!

• Do not answer a "Who" question with a place.
• Read the question to the end.

Check yourself

1. Which question asks about a place to sleep: "Where are you going to stay?" or "Who are you going with?"
2. What kind of answer does "Who" need?
