Question
 
heyyyy I �ve been a teacher for 5 years and I always find trouble when my students try to learn verbs, �cause there are too many, �cause they have to learn the three forms of only one verb and do not forget phrasal verbs. I mean I would like to know if u can help me or teach me new strategies to make my students learn faster and better. Dynamic activities or I don �t know.... Thanks a lot for the help u can give me ;)

If your students have access to the internet you could try "spelling city".
This is something they could do at home, not necessarily in the class.

You have to go to www.spellingcity.com

First thing you have to do is register. You will probably have to register as a parent, not as a teacher (you will have to mark one of the options). If you want to register as a teacher your school has to be registered too.

When you are registered and logged on you have to click "list management" in the right top corner and then click "create a list". you can create your list of words. When your list is ready you click it and you can play different games with the words you entered. Give a link to your students and they can play at home and learn in a pleasant way.

Hi

Try this link, it �s not mine, not my work, but I have it in my blog, and... I can �t find the original website now.


https://sites.google.com/site/carlosteixeiraiboard/home/past-simple---irregular-verbs

It �s a French teacher, if you are interested , pm me I �ll have a try, tomorrow and get his own link.

This exercise is only about past tenses, irregular, but students usually find it funny to do.
Wish I could help you more

thanks for ur help!!!!!
Dear superteach at the moment I just begin a new class with teenagers, beginners mmmm I �ve given them only one class, my question is for the future �cause according with my experience this is the most common  problem I usually have . For example, when I �m teaching Present Simple, they easily learn the grammar rule but their trouble begin when they try to remember verbs. They said How do say saltar (jump) in English? they forgot �cause the verb list is too long to remember for them, thats way I was asking dynamic activities to make them learn faster and easier. I dont know if I make myself understand but thanks anyway spelling city is awesome and the other one I �m gonna use it as well ;)
