One way not mentioned on the handout below but talked about in class was the question tag, "n'est-ce pas?" which you can use at the end of a sentence to turn it into a question. The assumption is that the person you're talking to will agree with you, so use this for yes or no questions for which you expect a "yes" answer. The question ends up looking like an intonation formation.
Ex. Il est malade. Il est malade, n'est-ce pas? Oui, il est malade.
Some other questions you can practice asking in different forms:
1. What is your name?
2. How are you doing?
3. Where do you work?
4. With whom do you speak French?
5. What time is French class?
6. What do you do on weekends?
7. When do you eat dinner?
8. What do you eat for breakfast?
9. Do you like coffee?
10. How many brothers and sisters do you have?
