Excellent starter double-pack, easily amended for use time and time again with any year group.
Learners are asked to form as many infinitives as they can in a given time limit using the Scrabble tiles in the first starter. Differentiated through forming the highest or lowest-scoring infinitive, through finding modal verbs, and through teacher support for the first examples and first letter of several other infinitives if necessary.
Easily adapted to link to any area of the curriculum (not just verbs), and a great individual or pair whiteboard warm-up. Learners can work together, compete against each-other in groups, and can also be trained to think of their own objective (for example colours, French regions or connectives) using letters that they provide. Students also really enjoy 'beat the teacher' at this game - playing against you in the same time limit with letters that they have provided!
The word octagon, based on the popular daily puzzle in The Times newspaper, asks learners to find the two adjectives within the shape, using the letter at the centre for each one and every other letter no more than once. Fabulous for engaging higher-order thinking skills. There are two octagons with two adjectives in on this slide. Again, very simply adapted.
