I am a long time ESL teacher and KS2/KS3 tutor. I create professional handouts and activities which do not require any alteration, simply print and copy. I make my resources user-friendly, meaning they are easy for pupils to understand, effective at teaching the target skill and entertaining for pupils to use. Where colour is used, the worksheets generally can successfully be printed in black and white unless otherwise stated.

A basic worksheet to practice the past simple form and understand the meaning of 12 verbs. They are sorted into 6 groups of verbs with similar meanings to help comprehension.
**Note: This worksheet is intended to accompany Alice in Wonderland (A2 kids reader). It practices words and verb forms from the story. Look at my other resources to find more games and activities part of this unit.
Speaking practice for young learners of English at the A1-A2 level. I could also be used for extra revision for young B1 pupils.
It’s a guessing game for pupils to practice proper formation using past simple questions (Did you…?) and answers (Yes, I did / No, I didn’t). It can then be followed by a speaking or writing exercise in which the pupils must make full sentences about one person.
Game Play:
Prepare one game board per pupil.
Pre-teach any necessary vocabulary. Remind pupils that in yes/no questions, they do not need to change the verb form.
Player A decides who she/he is from the board, and keeps it secret.
Player B asks yes/no questions to guess who player A is.
To guess the name, pupils should be encouraged to use full question form - ‘Are you [name]?’ rather than simply saying the name (you know, extra practice and all!)
Switch roles and repeat.
verbs used:
eat, drink, laugh, cry, go, look for, see
other vocabulary:
biscuit/cookie, mushroom, tea, water, beach, forest/wood, key, book, caterpillar, hare
**Note: this activity complements vocabulary from Alice in Wonderland. Look at my other resources to find more games and activities part of this same unit on past tenses and Alice in Wonderland.
3 activities intended to accompany ‘Alice in Wonderland’ (level 5 (A2) kids reader by Pearson).
Language:
- characters from the story
- miscellaneous verbs and nouns from the story
- past simple sentence and question form
Bundle contains:
- worksheet to practice meaning and form of 12 key verbs used throughout the story and in the card games
- yes/no speaking game - low prep, simply print and go!
- 2 decks of cards played similar to ‘Uno’ which use language and grammar from the story
The first file contains example sentences with underlined words which need to be matched to cards with the type of speech (verb, noun, etc).
After practicing matching the example sentences to the types of speech, pupils can then try practice exam questions from past KS2 exams which test knowledge of parts of speech.
