- someone calling roll (calls out the names and takes care of the computer)

- a board master (checks that the classroom is clean, cleans the board and writes the date)
- the time master (checks the time and alerts the teacher at the end of an activity)
On your table, there are two papers: one with the calendar of what house is in charge when, and the other where you need to put your names in for the rest of the year.

- What information do you have? Write the sentences to introduce yourselves (name / age / date of birth / ID number).
Now, let's have a look on how to ask the questions:
-> to ask a question in English, start with the answer. Find out the information and choose the question word accordingly. Switch the verb BE and the subject => WH + BE + subject + ?
My name is Jeanne -> What is your name?
I am 15 -> How old are you?
My date of birth is July, 26th -> What is your date of birth?
I was born on July, 26th -> When were you born?
My ID number is 26 -> What is your ID number?
Lesson 9
- Practice your questions and your answers with your neighbour
Activity:
Only the students from two houses will be given ID cards. The other students have to ask them questions (only one per turn) to find their ID card. Once they have found them, they go to the teacher and ask for one. At the end, everyone should have found their own ID card. You can only ask one question and everything has to be done in English. The prefects are in charge of monitoring the game.
