This sheet is designed to make questions, The vocabulary is easy. It can be used in the classroom to practice the interrogative form of the verb and the question words.

Questions

This worksheet contains viewing and listening comprehension activities on the topic environment. It is based on the video film and song "What I've done" by Linkin Park and aims at practising vocabulary related to enviromental problems and their causes. It can be used as a motivation to the topic or as a follow-up after vocabulary expansion related to environmental problems. It can also serve as a basis for the teaching of a grammar item by using parts of the lyrics or the conclusions drawn from the message of the song. In the first exercise, the students are expected to watch the video film and identify the environmental/social problems that appear in it. There is a list of problems and they tick the ones they see in the video. After watching the video, they should also discuss its message, by relating what they see to the title of the song. Then, they listen to the song again in order to fill in the gaps in the lyrics of the song with the missing words. Finally, there are some questions to make them analyse the lyrics and the message the singer wants to convey. 

What I've done

This handout was made to practice pronunciation and to identify the statements in future (going to and will).

It is a lyrics of the song One Way or Another covered by One Direction.

Students watch a youTube video about tricks that architects use when designing modern skyscrapers to prevent them from moving excessively because of wind.  As they watch (or after :-) ), students complete the missing words. Although the topic might seem challenging, with the worksheet and subtitles enabled, the task is  quite easy, really. And the students will learn something about the architecture and design. Plus the I included the key.I just hope the .doc format won't change too much after uploading.
