Teacher’s guide:
WH-QUESTION GAME
Subject: Question words + Past Simple (it can be used to practice questions with present simple or any other verb tense)
Material: up to 4 sets of question word slips; sentence list for the teacher; optional prize.
Estimated time: 10 min
Procedure: The students should be divided in groups of 4 or 5 people. Each group gets a set of Wh-question words (where, when, how, who, what). Place an easy-to-sit-on chair in front of the board.
The teacher reads an answer; the groups send someone to sit on the chair carrying the right question word. The student who sits there first has a chance to produce the whole question and score 5 points. If the question is wrong, another group can give it a shot, but this time it is worth 10 points.
In case you have a tie or you want to spice it up, you can use the bonus/challenge round (especially with stronger groups). It's worth 20 points each correct question, 40 if the first groups gets it wrong.
