A grammar resource for Intermediate Level Adult ESL students. It begins with a review powerpoint and then 4 Activities of increasing difficulty. There are 2 writing tasks a grammar activity and a speaking/listening group activity.The final activity is open ended and quite challenging but a good introduction to the language required for IELTS Writing Task 1 (or other academic writing) I am aware that not all teachers have access to photocopying facilities or the ability to print off heaps of copies. For this reason, I try to keep the printed pages as dense as possible to reduce the number of printed pages. It is also better for the environment! I have planned this so that slides 2 – 4 (or 5) are used as a PowerPoint review with the whole class – hence the coloured background. The rest (on white background) can be printed (or not) as required.

Zero conditional – for general truths Vocabulary of global warming and general life situations. Completing a cloze activity Sentence matching and sentence completion.
