A variety of different activities to practise vocab on the topic of pollution and other environmental problems. Activities include a mixture of quick vocab tasks, reading and listening. Enough for 1 lesson or possibly 2.

A listening activity and verb conjugation activity to practise using the present and future tenses together - a good consolidation exercise for when pupils have studied both tenses separately
A selection of activities designed for practising the present, near future and future together. The idea is that pupils should have already studied the present tense and near future before, and have recently covered the future tense.

Vocab context is free time activities. Answers included.
