They will be divided into groups after the underline the questions they hear from the recording and pair check . After this, each group will have a different marker to underline on the board(WCFB) . I will introduce them to WH-questions by circling all the WH question words in the transcript. Then I give them a handout with the questions on plus 3 more questions from ex.8b.
