Mastering English Grammar: Past Perfect, Modals, and Irregular Verbs

Unit 3 Revision - Mock test

Learning Objective

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to revise and test your knowledge of  present perfect tense, 'have to', 'must', 'should', adverbs of frequency, and irregular verbs. 

Write 1 sentence for each: past perfect, have to, must, should

Signal words Present Perfect

Past Perfect Tense

The past perfect tense is used to express an action that was completed before another past action or point in time.

Modals: 'Have To', 'Must', 'Should'

Modal verbs express necessity, obligation, or advice. 'Have to' is used for external obligations, 'must' for strong internal obligations, and 'should' for advice or recommendations.

Adverbs of Frequency

Adverbs of frequency indicate how often an action occurs. Examples include 'always', 'often', 'sometimes', 'rarely', and 'never'.

Irregular Verbs: Examples

Irregular verbs do not follow the standard -ed ending in the past tense. Examples: 'go' (went), 'eat' (ate), 'buy' (bought).

Practice: Sentence Formation

Provide sentences with gaps and ask students to fill in the gaps with the appropriate past perfect form, modals, adverbs of frequency, or irregular verbs.

Interactive Quiz

Engage the class in a fun quiz to test their understanding of past perfect, modals, adverbs of frequency, and irregular verbs.

Application and Review

Assign a short writing task for students to apply their knowledge of the grammar concepts covered in the lesson. Review key points and address any remaining questions.

Write down 3 things you learned in this lesson.

Have students enter three things they learned in this lesson. With this they can indicate their own learning efficiency of this lesson.

Write down 2 things you want to know more about.

Here, students enter two things they would like to know more about. This not only increases involvement, but also gives them more ownership.

Ask 1 question about something you haven't quite understood yet.

The students indicate here (in question form) with which part of the material they still have difficulty. For the teacher, this not only provides insight into the extent to which the students understand/master the material, but also a good starting point for the next lesson.
