Speaking Activity Set 1 (Introducing yourself)

I have designed this worksheet for my 9th graders, who have a mixed level of English ( from pre-A1 to A2). The ws includes 5 exercises: two "introcude-yourself" exercises as a guided writing, two exercises about cardinal and ordinal numbers, and the last one is about using the right affirmative forms of verb "to be". Their level of vocabulary is higher than the grammar one, thus the need to clarify the basics of grammar. Hope you will find it useful!
