Introducing the "Passive Voice" (1) - Basic rules for Upper elementary and Intermediate students
This is the way I chose to introduce the passive voice to my 13-year-old students in terms of grammar rules - use and form (Simple present + S. Past). 4 different types of exercises graded in terms of complexity. First, students match the active verbs forms with the corresponding passive forms, then they read a piece of news taken today from Yahoo and cross the wrong ver form out. They rewrite sentences in the passive and, finally, they write sentences in both voices - active and passive - from prompts. 2nd in the series: http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=374687#thetop Wish you all a wonderful week. Hugs, mena :))))))
