1.16 A family tree
Here is a drawing of a family tree. Student A also has a drawing of a family tree but it is not exactly the same as yours. (There are seven differences.) By asking Student A questions, see if you can find the differences. Put a circle around anything that is different. Before you start, work out the sort of questions to ask. For example:
Who is Mary married to? What does Samantha do? How many children have Brian and Ann got? How old is Alice |
OR Is Mary's husband called Paul?
OR Is Samantha a hairdresser?
OR Have Brian and Ann got one child? OR Is Alice seventy-two? |
When you are both ready, take it in turns to ask and answer questions.
When you have finished, compare the family trees.
