Common misconception
Pupils may not remember the question mark at the end of a question.
When saying the questions aloud, encourage pupils to draw the question mark in the air, or say 'question mark' out loud to help them remember.
You may wish to practise asking and answering questions outside of this lesson and use a context they're more familiar with, such as the school building.
