This worksheet looks at some common idioms taking 'time' as the theme.
Your students will learn about:
* from time to time
* in the nick of time
* have time on your hands
* have a whale of a time
* it's only a matter of time
There are exercises where students guess the meaning and rewrite sentences using the new expressions. Finally, there are discussion questions, which give your class the opportunity to personalise the language.
Find out about your students reading habits with this discussion worksheet!
The lesson starts out with a pre-discussion task, with students making notes on the book they're currently reading, or one they have read recently.
This is followed by discussion questions where students talk about their favourite books and authors. They can also ponder whether it's important to read books, and discuss the growing trend of e-books.
This worksheet is written for intermediate-level classes.
Can your students explain to a plumber about a pipe that is leaking? Could they ring up an electrician and explain how the circuit breaker keeps tripping?
This handout has great vocabulary and expressions - and if you have students planning to live abroad, they're bound to need this!
