Aim To practise tag questions.
Activity Students choose the correct tag questions to complete sentences.
Organisation Individual / pair work
Preparation Make enough copies of the worksheet for the number of students in your class.
What do I do?
  1. Cut up and mix the words before your lesson.
  2. Ask students to match the sentences and tag questions.
  3. Turn all of the cards face down and play a memory game: The first student turns over 2 cards. If they match, the student keeps the pair and tries again. If not, play passes to the next student. The student with the most pairs at the end is the winner.
