Concept Questions

[mvick]

Hi I am learning about concept Questions to ask Students to identify if they understand the meaning of a word such as
'should'

Model Sentences
He should've gone home.

'should'
He should stop smoking

'hate'
John hates coffee

I have to give the students a clear concept (i.e meaning) of the new language item. I have to ensure to check the students' understanding of the concept. Otherwise I have no clear idea of how successful the presentation of the word has been.

Does anyone have any ideas on how best I can put this into practice, i.e. understand it myself to ask the correct questions to test their understanding.

He should stop smoking:

Does he smoke?
Is it a good idea for him to stop smoking?
Is he obliged to stop?
That way, you establish that he is a smoker, he is not compelled to stop, but stopping would be advisable.
