B. MOTIVATION
Class, before we formally start with our

PICK-liwanag mo.”
Instructions:
The teacher posts a picture on the board.
Students will observe the picture. The teacher
plays a music while the students pass a bowl
that has questions regarding the photo If the
music stopped, the one who is holding the
bowl will pick a strip of paper. The student will
answer the question.
The man in the white coat is
Who is the man in front? the doctor, Ma’am.
What is the man in front doing? He is looking at the girl's
health, Ma’am.

talking in front of you?

D. PRESENTATION
Now class, what did you notice with our I observed Ma’am that all the
activity? questions are WH-questions.
Yes, that's right. Today, we are going to
discuss how to formulate WH- questions and
how to respond to it.
What are the WH- questions? Who When
Where What
Why How
When do we use these questions class?
These questions are used
when gathering information,
Ma’am.
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 Yes, Ma’am.
it?
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, Ma’am.
When are you leaving?
In the first example, what is the Wh-question
used?
When
How about the auxiliary verb?
What is the subject in that sentence? are
Lastly, what is the main verb? you
Exactly! leaving
So now, let's discuss the meaning of those
questions and afterwards, you will give your
own examples.
