A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Use page 1 as the board and keep page 2 as a source of examples, not a script for players.

  1. Model a holiday question and ask for a different question on the same topic to establish the freedom of the task.
  2. On each turn, a player asks a complete question and another player answers; reject repeated questions rather than repeated topics.
  3. Collect the different ways groups approached friends, transport or future plans and compare their question openings.

Support and extension

Offer a question-word bank if needed. Learners can move between tenses where the topic permits; this is intentionally less guided than ESL-1003.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
