A perfect songwriting activity to vary your grammar lessons! Free Worksheet
1) Use it as a warm-up for A2 students: final revision of the past simple tense, if students are confident in this grammar topic / use it during a final production stage of your past simple lesson with stronger students.
2) As a revision with high-level students (B2-C1), who already know all ways of using the past simple and need a more challenging, though, creative task. If you work with a group, ask them to work in pairs or mini-groups to make the task more collaborative and communicative.
3) Make it hard level by asking your B2-C1 students to add the past perfect or the past continuous tenses. Give examples.
