List of great literature for teenagers. Includes blurbs (mix of 24 classics and contemporary novels).
I�ve spent many hours searching the internet for excellent readers for my grade 10-students (age 15 - 17).

My task is then to put the students together in readers� groups according to the book they like ...

Passive and Active voice + answer key and some feedback. Sentences related to lockdown
I used this test in our pre-teaching. It comes with an answer key and some useful feedback. I use bookwidgets for these exercises. Similar to this test is a �retake� test for students who did not reach my required minimum (11/15) as well as a last chance test.

Active and Passive Voice. Step by step grammar guide
I have noticed that students find this format much easier to study whether a sentence is active or passive and how to turn it into the other voice. Especially for distance learning, this has proven to be extremely useful. It is a word document, so it can easily be edited to suit your needs.

Different approach to an exam (advanced level). Writing, vocabulary, grammar and culture

No longer closed questions (where only one answer is possible), but we have to evaluate the use of practical English in a context. This involves a lot of writing, but is actually mor...
