"Simple" Questions - forming questions (explanation, exercises, and key included)
Here is another approach to teaching students how to form questions.

Do, Make or Take
Here�s a seemly simple worksheet that helps students learn when to use make, take or do. I have partially used quotes from films and people so the exercises themselves are pretty easy for students, but translating and explaining some of the meanings may be a bit difficult for the teacher. I started the lesson with the question: "Do you make, take,...

Crypto Quiz #4
Here is another Crypto Quiz. It is about a famous Apache warrior. I marked it as advanced and for older students because the top�ic could be a little controversial and the vocabulary is pretty high-level. If you use it, be ready to discuss the US and Spain�s/Mexico�s treatment of the Indians (yes, "Indian" is an acceptable term. I was told so by ...
