#1 11-Sep-2007, 18:20Please open your books ?? page 6.
Dear everyone,
Today I taught my first English lesson and I noticed that I have a really important question. Do you say:
"Please open your books on page 6" or do you say
"Please open your books at page 6"?
In the net I also found the version "Please open your books to page..".
Which one is correct?
Thanks a lot.

You could also say, Please turn to page 6 now.
