Need help. Directions
Hi teachers,
The students have this question, "What is there on the night table?" and they answer "There is an alarm clock".
Are these directions fine to write the no question?
Write the no question according to the given information.
Change the subject "an alarm clock" for "a lamp".
Of course, there are more questions than this one, this is just an example.
Thanks in advance
