Hmm, I suspect the worksheet is actually intended for teachers as instructions on how to alter their worksheets rather than for students....
Maybe it�s under the wrong worksheet type?THAT is a problem!
It, however, may be ok as the method can still be applied to worksheets designed for everyone in that age group.
Don�t use examples that are too absurd to prove a point - it doesn�t really work...

I agree with you danibauer,
I am trying to find activities for my kids aged 7 and 9 and it is horrible because I am wasting a lot of time looking for them since the activities don�t match the ages!!! Is is so difficult to give the right information???
Hugs from Spain!!

 Good evening to you! I totally agree with Daniela! A few days ago I was looking for other exercises on Reported Speech and there were lots of workheets misplaced... I could find a little bit of everything and some of them had nothing to do with that grammar topic... I even found some Reading Comprehension Tests. Once someone asked in the forum how we could place the same worksheet in different contents because he/she had found the same worksheet in the "vocabulary"category, "grammar" cat., "reading", "tests , etc... But no one could say...
As for the ages, I try to be as precise as I can even though Isometimes I wonder if a worksheet is appropriate or not for primary school kids, because I�ve never worked with children that age. The levels are not so difficult but sometimes we do have doubts. European countries have the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment, which presents 6 levels - A 1 and 2 for basic users, B1 and 2 for independent users and C 1 and 2 for Proficient users. For example, my 8th graders (their 4th year leaning English) are in level B1, i.e., Intermediate level. Would it make it easier for us to use those 6 levels instead of the 3 levels we use here? I�m not sure.
Wish you all a good night!
