A fantastic new resource that provides learners with an excellent way of learning and revising 100 verbs in the present, perfect, imperfect and future tenses. The cards get them to practise the verbs in sentences in context, and immediate feedback is given, allowing them to learn and test themselves at their own pace.
These cards will appeal to all learners, and will engage visual and kinaesthetic learners especially. Amusing illustrations, colour coding and clever design help learners to remember the verbs and tenses in context and to build up their vocabulary – and all in a wonderfully low-tech way!
How they work
Each card contains 9 sentences in each of the four tenses, accompanied by an illustration. By means of the ingenious ‘cut-out card slide system’, learners move the front card up and down to reveal sentences illustrating each of the pictures in different tenses. Each sentence is prompted by a sentence beginning that triggers one of the four tenses. Students work with the conjugated verbs in one or all of the four tenses first and then slide the cut-out card to the ‘infinitive only window’ to test themselves. In this way they can revise all the tenses and use the pictures to relate a simple narrative. Each card practises one particular pronoun. On the reverse of each of the cards the verb paradigms are written out in full in all four tenses, and suggestions for oral exploitation are given that encourage the student to use the verbs they have worked on with different pronouns and in different narrative contexts.
Prices
Each pack contains a set of 16 double-sided and 16 single-sided ‘cut-out card slide system’ A4 cards, teacher’s notes and learner’s notes. The cards cover 100 verbs.
