Instructional Ideas

  • Assign the worksheet as homework, independent practice, or small group skills practice  
  • Use the sheets as a pre- and post- assessment to test learners' knowledge and discover where reteaching is necessary 

Classroom Considerations

  • Requires copies
  • The worksheet uses multiple British terms as it was created in the UK 
  • Presumes scholars are familiar with verb tenses 

Pros

  • Multiple activities offer scholars the opportunity to show what they know in different ways 

Cons

  • Items are not numbered
  • Space to write is limited which could pose a challenge for writers with large print
