Questions in the past, present and future.

This is a game. You can practise question asking. You can play and  learn at the same time.

When we ask questions in English, we need an auxiliary. If you want to know about habitual actions you will have to use DO. DOES (he, she , it) to ask those questions.
If you want to ask about past actions you will have to use DID and if you want to ask about future actions you will have to use WILL.
For example:
Where do you go every day? I go to school
Where did you go yesterday? I went to school
Where will you go tomorrow? I wll go to school

O.K  Let´s play and learn!

When you finish playing, please write down a short dialogue including questions in the past, present and future. Questions and answers! It is a dialogue!!
