            Present Tenses Test 
            
            This is a test I made for my secondary school students. It tests the knowledge of present continuous and present simple tenses. Obviously it can be used either as a test or practical exercise.

            Explain yourself - neighbour, housing 
            
            Work in pair or little group. A student draws a question from the question draw pile and reads it out to a group member. The point is they have to explain themselves. Creativity is the key. Students change roles frequently.
