The Smart Crow - February 17, 2020
Paid LessonLesson Collection #3 - Lesson 14c
Listening to each other and spotting errors in English grammar and syntax.
This worksheet has three sections, A B & C. Each section has nine sentences and each sentence is exactly the same except that only one of them uses correct English.
Students, in groups of three, have to listen carefully to each other to discover who has the grammatically correct sentence. Many of the errors are with missing or incorrect articles (a, an or the), a dropped unnecessary "s" or inaccurate verbs.
By working closely together, and listening carefully, students can easily identify the incorrect sentences simply by comparing the three.
There is even a "built in" confirmation with this lesson; once students have finished, they insert the code and hopefully will spell out the title: Smart Crow.
There are five similar lessons available. They are:
Sour Grapes (see Lesson 14a above)
The Lazy Grasshopper (See Lesson 14b above)
The Clever Fox (See Lesson 14d below)
Greedy Dog (See Lesson 14e below)
The Silly Crab (See Lesson 14f below) -and-
The Sun Vs. Wind (See Lesson 14g below).
What Makes Our Lessons Different?
Teachers Save Time
Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.
Students Learn by Doing
Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.
Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing
Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.
Fun for Teachers & Students
We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.

Hi Kurt,
After reading the other testimonials, I really agree with them! I have taught ESL for 20+ years and I am always looking for exciting materials for my adult students. Your worksheets have hit the jackpot! They have captured the attention of my adult students. Observing them last night with the adjective synonyms, they were staying past the dismissal time and working to explore and complete the worksheet. Thank you, Thank you.
