Sorry  for  the mistake  I  made  in  this worksheet. There  was one  in  sentence  number  five. I have  corrected and  hope you like  it. Thanks  to  all  of you. :-)

MAKING SUGGESTIONS

this worksheet will help you about the words that we have to use to be polite and respectful  as for example: please, thank you, i am sorry and excuse me. Students have to insert this words in their speaking

Magic words

A story about a visit to a museum. I have re-uploaded this. I am sorry that the original contained a typo on the last word: interesting. I had missed a letter out. Someone let me know. To that person: thank you and if you need to correct it yourself, you simple delete the frame - it's a text box. Delete it and you can edit the sheet. I pride myself on NO MISTAKES, so I apologise. This is absolutely correct now. 

RC: At the natural history museum.

It's useful to improve general language, creativity and writing skills. Older students can use past verbs, you can also add or change or delete what you want. I hope it can be useful. Thanks Mada for the permission to use her cute template!( when you download it the format is better, sorry, but the pics are heavy)

CROSSWORD: NUMBERS - KEY

Hello! 

I'm sorry but I've temporally changed my sheet.  It's a pictionary sheet and it previously contained 30 animal body parts. 

Some people reposted it online without giving me ANY credit and some are using it for monetary gain. Until I deal with them, the sheet stays as it is now. So, please, if you pinned it, unpin it. If you posted it on your website, you didn't have right to do it. Take it off, please. 



The ISL license allows others to use your work for personal or classroom use only.  So, DON'T PIN IT, please!  Thank you!



Update 2017: since I cannot win with the sites that are using my worksheet without my permission, I decided to upload it on TPT website. So, if you really need it, you can get it here:
