IS SCHOOL COOL? - 7th grade TEST

Worksheet for reinforcing spelling of family words. 

I used with Grade 3 & 4 very successfully. 

Family

With this worksheet, your students will learn how to use the "Zero Conditional" with three different activities. The exercises are graded by difficulty. 
 The first exercise consists of joining the two parts of a sentence. 
 The second exercise consists of filling the gaps with the appropiate tense of a given verb. 
 The last exercise consists of correcting the tense mistakes in some sentences. 
 It includes key.

ZERO CONDITIONAL

A simple board game to help practise There is and There are grammar. Students roll dice and must say the full sentence represented by the pictures before they can play on. A few extra things thrown in (alphabet, counting). 

There is + There are board game

PREPARATION:

This activity requires you to make a die or cards to select from the following attributes;

weight: heavy/light

size: small/big

age: young/old

strenght: strong/weak

speed: fast/slow

height: tall/short



The character cards also need to be cut up.



ACTIVITY:

The idea is to separate students into two teams or put them in a competition bracket.  One person selects the attribute, for example, heavy, and the competing students select blindly from the character cards.  The non-participating students ask the question selected, "Who is heavier, A or B?"  The two participating students reply, "A is heavier than B."  



Note: The characters are mostly recognizable to about 3rd grade elementary students and up

SCIENCE WORKSHEETS ABOUT MATERIALS 2ND GRADE

MATERIALS

IN THIS WORKSHEET CHILDREN CAN PRACTICE COLORS AND PARTS OF THE FACE AT THE SAME TIME. IT WAS MADE FOR MY PUPILS OF FIRST GRADE (5-6 YEARS OLD). I MIXED NATURAL SCIENCE LESSON AND ENGLISH VOCABULARY LESSON IN ONE WORKSHEET. AS THEY LIKE COLOURING VERY MUCH, IT MAY BE FUN FOR THEM TO DO IT.

COLOUR THE PARTS OF THE FACE

This is a weekend homework for 4th grades which talks about countries. Students will learn about finding the information from a text. 

The homework has 3 parts; reading, vocabulary and use of English. For the vocabulary, it\'s related to countries and for the language focus, it is about expressing time. 

I hope you enjoy it with your students as much as I enjoyed writing it.

The principal goal is that the students can understand what is happening in Europe these days and you can also make a debate or any kind of oral activity in the end of  this activity.
