Wally’s Present Continuous Tense Practice

 

Roz Currie

 

GRADE LEVEL: JHS 1-3
SKILLS: Speaking/Listening
TIME: 5-10 minutes
MATERIALS: Worksheets A and B (next page)
OBJECTIVES: A very quick review exercise of the present continuous tense, i.e. I’m walking, a horse eating hay etc

 

 

PROCEDURE:

 

1. Give out the worksheets so each pair has one sheet A and one sheet B.

 

2. Explain the activity in English. They should get the idea pretty quickly. The students will take it in turns to read a statement and their partner must find the person/people/bear doing that activity. Make it a race so the first to finish get stickers or glory.

 

3. In my lowest level class I did have to point out the vocabulary at the top of the page as no one noticed it.

 

NOTES:

 

This was intended for my Sannensei, but I think the idea is easily transferred to other years.

Best to do it at the END of a lesson rather than as a warm up to stop them searching for Wally for the next hour. I then got complaints that students were still playing throughout their next lesson (Japanese)!

 

HANDOUTS and WORKSHEETS:
