Present Simple Ask and Tell coin game
Pick a card and make a personal question from it, e.g. “How often do you eat candy?” with “candy”, “Do you often do you forget birthdays?” with “forget” or “How much do you spend on make up?” with “make up”. Another person will flip a coin. If you call “Heads” or “Tails” correctly, you can choose one person to ask that question to. However, if you call wrongly, you will have to answer your question!
