Sample questions

A few real prompts from the game to help you choose an activity for your class.

  1. Sort the sentences into groups.

    Sort into

    • the subject acts
    • the subject is acted on
    • Fah wrote the letter.
    • The letter was written.
    • They built the house.
    • The house was built.
    Read the explanation

    In the active the subject acts; in the passive it is acted on.

  2. Sort the time words into groups.

    Sort into

    • goes with the past
    • goes with the present perfect
    • yesterday
    • already
    • two days ago
    • never
    Read the explanation

    The time word signals which tense the sentence needs.

  3. Sort the words into groups.

    Sort into

    • adds "er"
    • takes "more"
    • tall
    • beautiful
    • fast
    • interesting
    Read the explanation

    A comparative adds "er" or takes "more", depending on the word's length.

Before you play

Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Practise sorting P6 structures: active versus passive sentences, time words for the past versus the present perfect, adjectives that add -er versus take more, and proper versus common nouns.

What's in the worksheet

4 sorting questions - Fah wrote the letter. versus The letter was written. - yesterday and two days ago go with the past; already and never with the present perfect - tall and fast add -er; beautiful and interesting take more - Bangkok and Monday are proper nouns; city and day are common nouns

How to use it in class

Use as a mid-term review game, 5-6 minutes in team mode, then have a team explain the passive item. - For item 1, ask who wrote the letter; if the sentence doesn't say who did it, it is probably passive - For item 4, have pupils look at the capital letters Play it linked to a class and the results go into the mark book.

Common sticking points

- Item 2: putting never with the past because I never went is familiar; give I have never been to Japan. - Item 1: calling The letter was written. active because was is a past verb; a letter cannot do anything by itself - Item 3: hesitating over fast, which they also know as an adverb

Play together first, then build on it with a worksheet for the same level.
