Pair Work - Tourists / Customs Desk + Intonation of questions

Hi guys,

 

today we dedicated the lesson to rehearsing your roles for the pair work about travelling to an English-speaking country.

We also paid attention to the way questions were to be asked = either with a falling intonation (down) or rising intonation (up).

Here is the rule:

- lorsque la question commence par un mot interrogatif comme "where" / "when" / "How long" / ..., l'intonation descend. ex: "Where are you from?"

- lorsque la question commence par un auxiliaire comme "be" (conjugué), "do", "may", "can", ... l'intonation monte. ex: "May I see your passport, please?"

 

You need to know by heart the meaning of your WH- words:

who / where / when / what / how long / how many / ...

Homework:

- corriger le devoir obligatoirement si vous avez eu moins de 20/40 et facultativement si vous avez eu plus. Utiliser une feuille séparée pour la correction et écrire toutes les réponses en s'aidant du cahier si besoin.

- préparez votre jeu de rôle. Répétez bien les deux rôles et faites attention à la prononciation des questions quand vous répétez le rôle de "customs officer".
