Goal: Wh- Questions
Our goal in this class is to be able to SPEAK English quickly, easily, and automatically ... to have an English Conversation. They BEGIN with sentences and CONTINUE with sentences. But these sentences have to be connected so that the conversation FLOWS smoothly. Questions--Thought Questions and asking questions--will help you do that. The main words in questions are ... verbs (including auxiliary verbs) and nouns.
