The document provides instructions for completing questions with answers given below them. It asks students to complete questions about what someone is doing, where they are located, and what other people are doing. The questions are intended to be part of a role play where a police officer is interviewing a witness about a bank robbery. The instruction is considered too long for elementary students and could be simplified by focusing only on the major points.
