Improve your writing
I created this worksheet to start a unit about writing style. The exercises in our book are quite difficult so I thought it would be wise to start out with a relatively easy little story. Didn�t want to scare them off ;) I printed just the story on a transparency and we talked about possible improvements. Then they got the worksheet and we went th...

Reading Comprehension: Nothing left to lose (homeless teenagers)
This is a reading comprehension I created for my students (9th grade, 5th year of English). The text is taken from Morton Rhue`s "Asphalt tribe", a book about homeless teenagers in the US.

Why English is such a complicated language - working with dictionaries
My advanced students had to work with English-English dictionaries and this is one of the worksheet they got, a humorous approach to the English language. I thought it would fill only 45min but I was wrong, they found so many examples that we used almost two lessons. Hope you�ll like it, maybe you have to adjust it to your own language. HAPPY EASTE...

Elementary Pronunciation Practice (Key included)
A little worksheet I created for 5th graders (1st year of English). I used it in one of the first English lessons as a combined vocab-writing-pronunciation practice. First they wrote down the plurals, then we read them out loud together (they love that ;)) Hope it�ll be useful!!

Conditional I grammar guide and worksheet (2 pages)
Last week I introduced the conditional I in my 6th grade and made these worksheets. My students only got the second part (horoscope and empty grid) as they have to figure out the rules themselves (more effective imo) but I included the full grammar guide here. Hope it�ll be useful for you as well :) Have a great weekend!!

Describing a picture
I created this worksheet for my 9th graders (intermediate - advanced) so I was able to use William Hogarth�s pictures. I love them, so many little, but important details to discover and older students get the meaning, too. I added the other pictues just for color but we ended up talking about them as well. Hope it�ll be useful for you. Have a grea...
