Describe a Suspect to the Police
This one�s kind of complicated but fun. It won�t work well unless you have motivated students. It�s based on a New Cutting Edge PreIntermediate activity in Module 5, but if you try it their way, it falls completely apart so I made my own using free use photos from the web.

Personality Dictionary Quiz
I use this this near the beginning of a unit on personality as a dictionary exercise. It�s used to pre-teach some personality words so that the students have at least a framework to work with other than "lovely" or "interesting". The students enjoy working together as I don�t tell them it�s not really a quiz until they�ve finished so they think the...

Warmer for "Describe Suspect to Police" activity
This is the warmer to set the context for the describe a suspect to the police activity. It should have been included in the activity but I haven�t figured out to modify an upload once it�s on the site. It�s an edited version of an actual story. It�s laid out "3-up".

2nd Conditional If then chain
This is very simple but the students really love it! It�s based on an exercise in New Cutting Edge�s Pre-Intermediate Module 15. Put the students in rows. Explain that the idea is to change the "main (then) clause" into an "if clause". The first if clause is furnished, change or add at will! The first student in the row, writes the main clause the...
