Wednesday, Oct. 27th! Modal Adventure Time

Hey guys, so we're going to try to get through a couple of different things in the lab today.

1) First, I'd like you guys to practice modals.
There are so many, and each of them has multiple uses that although the form is quite easy, learning all the different ways to use them takes a lot of time. Please practice your modals on the websites below.

This exercise is a little tricky, but it will give you good practice for the subtle differences in can, might, may, could, and must with probability.

This exercise is a good one to practice the modals must, have to, should and ought to with advice.

This exercise gives you lots of practice with the forms of should, ought to, and had better for advice.


2) After you have finished these three exercises, please log on to Tell Me More. Please work on listening or pronunciation exercises. Remember, I recieve an email report with your scores, so please do your best. You will be graded for your TMM work today!


PS: This is a good website to bookmark in your home computer. It has lots of grammar lessons and practice with ALL of the English modals. You can practice with this website for a long time and always have something new to do! :)
