Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Practise telling must (a rule), must not (forbidden), should (advice) and have to (necessary) apart, and remember the plain verb follows a modal, so pupils can talk about rules and advice (ต 1.2 ป.5/1).

What's in the worksheet

6 multiple-choice items - You ___ wear a helmet when you ride a bike. (must) - You ___ eat more vegetables. (should) - We ___ not run near the pool. (must) - I ___ to finish my homework tonight. options have / has / having - She ___ study for the exam. options shoulds / shoulding / should

How to use it in class

Use in a lesson on safety or classroom rules, 5 minutes in solo mode, then have pupils make a class-rules poster. - Draw three columns, must do, must not do, should do, and place the game's sentences in them - If She ___ study goes wrong, stress that should never takes an s, even with she Play it linked to a class and the results go into the mark book.

Common sticking points

- She ___ study: choosing shoulds out of the add-s-for-she habit; modals never change form - We ___ not run near the pool.: choosing should, which is also possible English; explain that pool rules are safety rules, so must not - You ___ eat more vegetables.: feeling it should be must; separate advice from rules
