The lesson is appropriate for intermediate and higher-level students who are already familiar with the uses and present forms of modal verbs must, needn’t, can’t, could, should, may, might, etc. The worksheet is suitable for both classroom practice and self-study. Lessons can be added in later which students will add adjectives and/or adverbs to their sentences. Before beginning the game, introduce your students to “rhyming”. Through questions and answers, you can begin by having students rhyme nouns. When you think they have the hang of it, you are ready to begin with verbs.
I explained to students that verbs have different tenses, past, present and future, and wrote them as headings on the board. I invited them to tell me the meaning of each. I did this to make sure students understood the vocabulary of the three tenses. I am glad I did this because a few students did not know the definition of future, even though they understood the concept of something that has yet to happen. I wrote the verb walk above the headings. Then I wrote the verb tenses for I under the appropriate heading: I walk, I walked, and I will walk. I did the same with you, he/she/it, we, and they.

I called on them to tell me the verb tenses for I (I play, played, and I will play) and recorded them on the board underneath the appropriate heading. Students did the same in their journals. We did the same with you, he/she/it,we, and they. I repeated the process with the verbs talk and laugh.
