Train Timetable Questions: Grammar and Practice activities
I have used this for a few years now and have found it to be very useful. There is a small section of a train timetable on the first page with some examples of "How many times a day ...?" questions as well as "How often does ...?" and "How long does it take ...?" along with some small explanations of the grammar. Once all the grammar has been done,...

Good practice for students of business English or geeks that love TV shows. There is an answer key for the final mix and match exercise but everything is pre...

A short exercise in the form of a dice game that looks at synonyms for the word wonderful. I did this because I still have students that have the idea that "terrific" is a negative adjective, no matter how many times I tell them it is not.
This can also be linked to non-gradable adjective exercises.
