B. Presentation

Interrogative Pronouns

- often stands for something that we are not aware of yet, because we are asking
about it. We use these pronouns specifically to ask questions. These pronouns
are special because they all start with Wh except for one H, which makes
them easy to remember.

We have seven interrogative pronouns:

WHAT is asking for person, animals, or things in general.

Examples:
What is the name of our Dean?
What is our lesson for today?
Class, can you now give/state me a question that begins with the interrogative
pronoun What?
Very good!

WHICH is asking for a person, animals, or things in a limited number.

Examples:
Which of these two do you prefer?
Which one among this students is the best?

Class, can you give me some other examples besides from the ones that are
place on the board?
 WHO is asking for a specific Name/Person.
Examples:
Who is that stunning lady I site from a distance?
Who is the owner of this institution?
Class. Who can now give another example using the interrogative pronoun
who?

WHERE is expecting an answer to be a place.

Examples:
Where are you going babe?
Where can I locate the geographical location of your house?
Now class, where are the students that can give me an example using the
interrogative pronoun Where?

WHEN is asking for dates/days or a certain life event.

Examples:
When was the last time youve said I love you to your dad before
he died?
When are we going to throw a party for my birthday?
Class, for those who didnt had that chance yet to give an example when are
you going too?

WHY is asking for a reason.

Example:
Why are you late again in my class?
Why am I too scared in the dark?
Can someone from the class give me another example using the interrogative
pronoun Why?

HOW is asking for steps or instructions.

Examples:
How can I make a person fall in love with me?
How to make a perfect cup of Coffee?
Class, can you now give/state me a question that begins with the interrogative
pronoun How?

C. Application

The students will be paired up and they will construct a question that they
want to ask to their partner. The twist here is that they will be using some
of the seven interrogative pronouns attached under their chairs.
 After so each of them will be given a chance to stand in front and read the
question to their partner and the other partner will answer.
