  2. Hello! I love the activity you've used, we often forget that learning a language is connected with practice and through this activity you have remember us that activities in English must be done like this. Through the activity they learn vocabulary, verbs, actions in your case and what is important in a language as well. They must know the word and use it in a sentence. The fact that they have to create a phrase also helps us to see what kind of words the student knows how to handle verbs, their difficulties, what they should improve ... To sum up, I think it's an activity that could greatly help both students and teachers,first, because students learn by doing and second, because we as teachers can change our methodology based on this activity and strengthen their weaknesses in English.

  3. Hi!!
    This activity about verbs is very interesting because first, students are write the verb in the gap and it is helped by the image. But I think the middle column is confusing because it some students can think that they have to match the verb and the image instead of making one sentence.

  5. Hi Jokin,

    I really like this activity, I thought how I could make a verb activity and this is very useful. Apart from learning verbs they interiorize them easyly with the pictures because they can see the action.

    Moreover they create sentences and they work also with writing skills. They also learn new vocabulary and new words because they maybe need help to express some expressions. Apart from that we can see which is the vocabulary or expressions that they use.

    Best regards,

    Oihane
