Question types: Whose pet is which?

Rule: Who has what

Draw a table: children in the rows, pets in the columns. Mark a sure “yes” ✓ and a “no” ✗.

Each child has a different pet: once someone has the dog, nobody else can have it.

Example: Three children, a dog, a cat and a fish. Emma has neither the dog nor the cat, so she has the fish.

Watch out: “Peter doesn’t have the dog” does not mean he has the cat: there are other pets left.
