This from Daniela Bize. It's a fun way to practice questions and negatives.
"I introduced the words to the kids all together, asked them to group them in families (they got it quite right, even though they didn't know most of them) and put them up in a poster.
We've been using this to make questions out of sentences. I make them make sentences which they are not sure if they are true or not (such as "La Paz is the largest city in Bolivia") and then turn them into questions to confirm if they are correct. It's been quite fun! They got it right... We're still practising this, we haven't turned to the negatives yet.
I'm attaching an exercise I've created. It's a trivia quiz. Hope you like it. Feel free to use it! "
