Ideas for Flashcards

Hello, everyone!

I am preparing my first few lessons for this student from Japan.

As my Japanese is totally rusty, not to say I lost it somewhere very far away several years ago (lol), I will have to use as many visual aids as possible.

This way, I was preparing some flashcards about question words, but when I came across "why" and "how", I couldn �t think of any pictures that could represent them. =(

For example, for "what" I will draw an object and a "?".
For "who", a person �s face and a "?".
For "how machy", I will write "1,2,3,4?"

But what about "why?" and "how?" Do you have any ideas?

Thanks a lot,

Lilli Zen.
