wh- questions simple present

Hello my dear 4th grade grammar students.

Remember the formula used to form WH questions in simple present with verbs different from the verb TO BE:


WH (question word) + DO/DOES + subject +verb + complement + ?

Examples:


Where do you live?
Here the question word is WHERE, the auxiliay is DO because the subject is YOU and the veb is LIVE

What time does she arrive school everyday?
Here the question word is WHAT TIME, the auxiliary is DOES because the subject is IS, the veb is ARRIVE and finally the complement is SCHOOL EVERYDAY

Here you are a link where you can solve some exercises using question words.

Let me know if you have any kind of problems solving them.
