Common misconception
You have to include the word for 'do' in Spanish intonation questions.
Spanish intonation (yes/no questions) can be made simply by raising the tone of voice at the end of any statement. There is no equivalent of the word 'do' in Spanish intonation questions.
Teacher tip
Teachers may find it helpful to support their teaching of intonation questions by using hand gestures to model rising intonation. Some pupils may find it helpful to use the same gestures themselves initially, as they practise.
