Instructional Ideas

  • Assign to the class before the grammar lesson the next day for a flipped classroom activity
  • Encourage learners to make a long list of possible gerunds, and to use them in different parts of their sentences
  • Use the election-themed presentation in an election year, or when discussing elections and politics in social studies

Classroom Considerations

  • Animations are fun, but might be distracting for younger learners
  • Designed for English learners but helpful for all members of your class
  • Best if used after your lesson on subject and object nouns

Pros

  • Differentiates between gerunds and the present progressive tense, which is a common mistake
  • Provides practice slides to reinforce concepts

Cons

  • None
