To ask questions about different times, we use special Magic Asking Words. Let’s look at them!
When we want to know what someone is doing at this very moment, we use Is, Are, or What. We also add -ing to the action word.
When we want to know about things that have already happened, we use the magic word Did.
When we want to know about things that will happen later, we use the magic word Will.
When a family member gets home today, ask them: "What did you do at work today?" (past) and "Will you play with me later?" (future) to practice your new questioning superpowers!
Read the sentences below and choose the correct magic word in the bracket to complete the question.
(Answers: 1. Did, 2. doing, 3. Will)
