In this entertaining present perfect Wh questions game, students race to make present perfect questions that elicit certain responses. In groups, students take turns taking an answer card from an envelope and reading it aloud to the group, e.g. 'I have gone shopping.' All the students then race to make a present perfect Wh question to elicit the response using a question word from their card, e.g. 'Where have you gone?' The first student to form and ask a suitable question takes the answer card and crosses off the question word on their card, e.g. where. It's then the next student's turn to take an answer card, and so on. The first student to cross off all the question words on their card wins the game.
