This product includes:

202 word cards (50 pages with 4 cards on each page, plus 1 page with 2 cards) with 33 verbs (in different forms) and 59 nouns

A PDF (view sample) with three sentences for each of the 12 tenses:

•  An affirmative sentence, for example: “Doris is taking the duck to the dam.”

•  A negative sentence, for example: “Freddie is not catching fish on the farm.

•  An interrogative sentence, for example: “Who is feeding the goat in the garden?”

Sentences are simple but complete and usually include a character (ex. “Andy”) that does an action (“eats”) with something (“an apple”) in a specific location (“in the attic”). The sentences contain nouns and verbs, and places are used with common prepositions. Questions can also be asked (“Who is taking the duck to the dam?”) to teach students to identify keywords in a sentence and apply those words to appropriate answers.

Instructions to the teacher

Tip: After printing out the sheets (and possibly laminating the cards), attach magnets to the backs of the cards.

Step 1: Lay out the cards on a desk or a table, or on the floor if students are sitting on the floor. You may also consider selecting 20-30 cards depending on the time available or the level of your students.

Step 2: Choose one of the sentences in this document, or make your own sentence with the available verbs and nouns, and by using different names – including names of some of your students.

Step 3: Write the sentence on the board, leaving gaps for the verb(s) and the noun(s). Then read the sentence out loud – a few times if necessary.

Step 4: One student – or a pair, or a team – searches for the right verbs and nouns.

Step 5: Once the student(s) have the right cards, they can fill in the gaps in the sentence.

Optional step 6: The student (or one of the students if they are playing in pairs or teams) writes the sentence below the sentence laid out in cards.
