On the walls of the class display the pictures you want to use. Drill pronunciation of must/might…+have+past participle Remind students of the use of the structure modal+have+past participle to make suppositions about actions that did or did not take place in the past.Įxplain that for this activity they will be working with the modal “ must” to speculate about the past and with the modals could/may/ might in the past to discuss different possibilities. Materials: post-it notes and pictures to display (see mine here)Īlthough this is an activity to reinforce learning and the grammar should have been explained beforehand, it might be a good idea to revise orally or on the board the targeted grammar. So, what else could one wish for?Īim: The focus of this lesson is on students integrating grammar, speaking and writing using modals of certainty and possibility in the past. They will need to interact with other classmates and use English to discuss English grammar while having fun at the same time. The focus is on grammar but, at the same time this activity gets them out of their seats and moving. It’s the kind of activity that I like because it includes movement and it encourages interaction between students. In today’s post I want to share with you an activity I did with my B2 students that worked really well. Let me start thanking you for all your comments, likes and shares on my posts.
