A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Print the first page with bold text visible; retain the teacher page.
- Use Sara's location to show that the question must request the bold detail while preserving the rest of the situation.
- Have learners compare the cost, frequency and possession items before writing their questions.
- Check the questions against the models and discuss when a subject question avoids do/does/did.
Support and extension
After written correction, pairs ask two questions with personal substitutions. Accept a natural alternative if it requests the same detail and keeps the tense.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
