When to use Do and when to use ARE?

Do you sick?
Are you sick?

The answer is obviously Are you sick. But how do explain to a 2nd grader when to use Do or Are?

Anonymous But how do you explain to a 2nd grader when to use Do or Are? I assume the second grader is not a native speaker of English, is that right? The best way is to learn it is by having the student listen to and speak English, imitating English speakers until he or she works it out intuitively which to use.
