Conversation Cards - Let's talk grammar mini - PRESENT SIMPLE AND PRESENT CONTINUOUS

The mini grammar cards are a unique set based on 12 engaging tasks that help students master basic tenses in English in an interactive and creative way. Each card contains a variety of exercises, such as putting words in the correct order, turning sentences into questions, choosing the correct tense, or filling in gaps with the appropriate verb form.

The tasks encourage reflection and personalization. For example, students answer questions in three different ways, consider whether a sentence is true for them, and create new sentences based on the original information, using different tenses. Some exercises require creativity, such as giving a false answer or making a sentence true without changing the negative form. This way, the cards allow for fun language practice while also developing practical grammar skills.

They are compact, portable, and perfect for both individual and group learning. It’s an excellent tool that makes grammar learning more engaging and enjoyable!

Sample tasks:

1) Put the words in the correct order. Answer the question. Give details.

yourself / How / you / about / do / talk / to / often / people?

2) Change the sentence into a question with ‘you’. Answer it.

My friends are having pasta for dinner tonight.

3) Choose the correct tense. Is this sentence true about you? Why (not)?

My sister doesn’t usually buy / isn’t usually buying clothes in second-hand shops.

Answer key is included in the box.
