Questions about families I don’t know game
with family vocabulary, personal questions, and third person S
Try to make your partner say “I don’t know” in answer to questions about their family like “Does your cousin like studying English?” and “Can you mother speak some Chinese?” You get one point for each “I don’t know” answer but no points for other answers (so no point for “I don’t have a cousin”, “I think so”, etc). Take turns doing the same until your teacher stops you, using a different question each time.
Suggested questions about people’s family members
- How old is your…?
- When is your …’s birthday?
- How do your spell your …’s (first/ middle/ family) name?
- Does your … like…?
- What is your …’s favourite…?
- Can…?
- Does your … have…?
- What time does your … …?
- What time did your … yesterday?
- What time did your … …?
- Where is your … now?
- Is your … wearing … now?
- Is your … …ing (…) now?
- How many … does your … have?
- How many … does your … …?
When your teacher stops you, brainstorm family vocabulary into this table:
|
Male relations |
Female relations |
Either male or female relations |
|

Compare as a class.
Change groups. Play the same game, but without looking above this time.
