Hi again everyone!!!

I would like to say THANKS A LOT!!! to flufyhamster's reply for the topic of passive voice, it worked very good in the class

now again I have to give another class but with time clauses (before, after, as soon as, until, when, while) expresing future, for example:

We will go when you are ready

I'm not going from here until you get back

I'll give it to him as soon as he want it

etc, I hope you understand and can help me to create an activity,

Thanks again!!

Best regards,

Valerie

You can't beat origami predictograms for future prediction.

The difficult thing is explaining how to fold them.

I'll give it a go.

Take a square piece of paper and fold the corners into the centre to make a smaller square.

Turn it over and do the same on the other side.

Open it into two talking mouths.

Write predictions inside.

I understand that you may not have a clue what I'm talking about, but a little origami never hurt any teacher.

A word of warning:

Never ger the students to write the predictions it is too complex to explain.

Always do it yourself and photocopy the original.
