A volcano is the open passage from the interior of the Earth that allows the outflow or explosion of fluid rocks and gases from the interior (mantle) to the surface of the solid crust in the form of lava. This activity leads to the creation of a mountain, which in everyday language we call a volcano. The term volcano mountains and later simply volcanoes is etymologically derived from the God of fire and metallurgy Hephaestus, as it was believed that his forge was located within them. Volcanoes are fascinating because of their beauty, but also terrifying because they can cause great destruction. Although eruptions are rare and scientists usually manage to bring them under control, they are still a huge source of danger to the people who live near them. Find out about the biggest volcanoes in the world with this practical eBook. You can check your students’ knowledge with the questions at the end.

When we describe an action in the Future Perfect Continuous tense, we are projecting ourselves forward in time and looking back at the duration of that activity. The activity will have begun sometime in the past, present, or in the future, and is expected to continue in the future. For example: “In November, I will have been working at my company for three years.” There are similarities and differences between the Future Continuous and the Future Perfect Continuous tense, which might cause confusion. The main difference is that we use the Future Continuous to predict the future, while we use the Future Perfect Continuous to talk about an ongoing action that will finish before another. This practical ebook will explain how the Future Perfect Continuous is formed, when it is used, and it will also provide plenty of examples and exercises. The relevant answer key is provided at the end as well.

The Future Perfect is a verb tense used for actions that will be completed before some other point in the future. For example: “The parade will have ended by the time Chester gets out of bed. At eight o’ clock I will have left.” The Future Perfect tense is used for talking about an action that will be completed between now and some point in the future. On the other hand, the Future Perfect tense is only for actions that will be complete before a specified point in the future. In other words, the action you’re talking about must have a deadline. If you don’t mention a deadline, use the Simple Future tense instead of the Future Perfect tense. In this ebook, you will find detailed explanations on how to form the Future Perfect tense, when it should be used, and many exercises for your students to practice. There is also the relevant answer key at the end.

The Future Continuous tense is a verb tense that shows an action happening over a period of time in the future. “I will be driving all night” is an example of the Future Continuous tense, as it indicates an action continuing over a specific future period of time. Compare it to this sentence, written in the Simple Future tense: “I will drive.” Although this example indicates an intention to drive in the future, it does not refer to a continuous action over a specific period of time in the future. The Future Continuous tense can be confusing because it sometimes seems interchangeable with other future tenses. This ebook sheds light to all the uses of the Future Continuous tense. It describes how it is formed, when it is used, and has ample practice for students, with plenty of exercises and examples. The relevant answer key to the activities is also included.

Austrian philosopher and scientist Rudolf Steiner established the Waldorf educational approach in 1919. The basis of Waldorf education lies in Anthroposophy’s belief that humans have a body, soul, and spirit that develop over time. Steiner believed that education must nurture these facets collectively to shape holistic individuals capable of making innovative and empathetic contributions to society. The main emphasis of the Waldorf philosophy is on a student-focused method, adjusting the curriculum to meet the distinct developmental needs of children at different stages of life. Learning in education focuses on arts, movement, storytelling, and nature, offering a hands-on and experiential educational experience. This contrasts with conventional, exam-driven educational methods, as Waldorf seeks to develop emotional intelligence, creativity, and social awareness, in addition to intellectual skills. This ebook contains all the necessary information about the principles, philosophy, and various stages of the Waldorf Curriculum. It also describes the subjects and assessments of it.

At first, passive voice might appear complex, but once you get acquainted with it, the fundamental structures stay the same. The ability to switch between passive and active voices is beneficial for intermediate to advanced English learners as it can prevent miscommunications, boost politeness, and enhance language abilities. This is a detailed explanation of the occasions where the passive voice should be used in the English language. Passive voice emphasizes the recipient of the action rather than the doer (agent) of the action. The passive voice is created by us using: The action was received by the object (by the doer of the action). Incorporating the part related to the agent (by + person who performed the action) is not mandatory and varies based on the situation. The aim of using passive voice is to highlight the action rather than the agent, therefore including information about the agent could be redundant or stating the obvious. This in-depth manual details the formation and usage of the Passive Voice, including numerous examples and practice exercises. The answer key can be located at the conclusion of the book.
