VIP Class Notes (Joe)

We focused on asking questions with ‘have you ever’ and answering with ‘I have’ and ‘I have never’. We learned about the difference between ‘did you do something’ and ‘have you ever done something’.

Write 3 questions with ‘Have you ever’  and 3 questions with ‘did you’. Remember that ‘have you’ is not about a point in time.
