Present Simple Tense Practice with answer key

I made this worksheet because I needed a more "challenging" one for my students to keep them focused, as they almost know this song by heart (I noticed that if the worksheet is easy, they lose interest, even if they like the song). They were sure that it would be an easy task, but I managed to surprise them :) There are 8 different exercises: choose the right word, fill the gaps, fill the gaps with antonyms, choose the correct spelling, find and correct the mistakes, complete the missing letters, match the lines and underline the words you hear. They enjoyed it and we had a lot of fun! I hope you like it too!

Song: Sugar - Maroon 5

Another song from Bieber´s last album. Again, I needed a challenging worksheet for my students, so you´ll find various exercises: fill the gaps, choose the right word, the right spelling, find extra words, order lines, correct mistakes, fill gaps with past simple and antonyms, complete missing letters. I added a post-listening activity for checking vocabulary, the students have to choose the correct meaning for several expressions. I hope you like it!



P.S. If you like my worksheets and your students like Bieber´s last album, I also uploaded "What do you mean?" today and "I´ll show you" some time ago. Thanks!

I made this handout inspired by the story of The Crystal Palace. This is simply a text from the newspaper from 1936. In the first exercise you choose past tense form, then in the second one you have to create a past form of the verb, and in the last one you are asked to create a sentence in the 3rd conditional. There is a little mistake in the text "about", you can encourage your students to find it.  The final exercise is working with the text and looking for synonyms.
