purpose for the expected to:

WH- questions;

new lesson
What are the WH-questions?

 Who
 Where
 Why
  When
 Which
 How
When do we use these questions,
class?
These questions are used
when gathering information,
Sir.
That's right, class! WH- questions
ask for information and we do not
expect a yes-no question, it is an
open question. Did you get it?
Yes, Sir.
Now, how do we form WH-
questions?

We usually form wh-questions

with wh- + an auxiliary verb (be,
do, or have) + subject + main verb

So, what do we mean by auxiliary

and modal verb? Kindly read first
what auxiliary verb is?
Auxiliary verbs or helping
verbs are used together with
the main verb to show the
verbs tense or to form a
question, auxiliary verbs are:
be, do, have, will, shall,
would, should, can, could,
may, might, must, ought, etc.
Okay, who can give me a
sentence that has an auxiliary
verb?
(Students’ answers vary)
Did you understand it now, class?

With that, let’s have an example. Yes, Sir.

When are you leaving?

In the first example, what is the

wh-question used?
When
How about the auxiliary verb?
are
What is the subject in that
sentence?

Lastly, what is the main verb?

Did you get it, class?
Yes, Sir.
Okay! So, let’s have the second
example.
What will you do?
What
In this sentence, what is the wh-
question used?
will
What is the auxiliary verb in this
sentence?
Very good! So, that is the modal
verb. What is the subject in that
sentence?

Lastly, what is the main verb?
do
Exactly!

So now, let’s discuss the meaning

of those questions and afterwards,

G. Making Class, why is it important to ask
generalizations questions?
and abstractions Sir, questioning is important
about the lesson because it helps us to learn
better. It is the simplest and
most effective way of
learning. People who think
that they know it all no
longer ask questions – why
should they? Brilliant
thinkers never stop asking
questions because they
know that this is the best
way to gain deeper insights.
H. Additional Follow up:
activities for
application or “Interview and investigate”
remediation
Interview someone in authority or
someone older than you (example
teacher, parent, barangay official).
 Formulate the questions that you
will to ask your interviewee. The
questions must start from simple to
complex and should lead your
interviewees to share the things
that they did in the past and they
don’t do now and the things that
they usually do before up until now.
Jot down all their answers to the
questions. Share to the class the
WH questions you formulated and
the answers of the people you
interviewed.

Advanced:
Have an advance reading on
verbs.
