Yesterday, there was unspeakable news that shook my heart and I felt I need to share the impact of these lost lives with my students. The Germanwings plane crash left no survivors, brutally taking away from us all these wonderful lives, 18 of which were pursuing their education, and their two mentors. That's right, there was an educational trip of 16 and two college students aboard the plane, and I give all the deceased my condolences; knowledge is short of 20 individuals. Keep learning, and realize that your education is more valuable now because of them. And by education I do not only mean your school work, because the moment you stop learning, you start dying. Start with reading the news on what happened to them, pray for them and their families.

Today, is an explanation of the rules on the simple present tense, and following it are some questions. Some of the sample questions are not affirmative sentences, so remember the rules for asking a question!
And of course, I have not forgotten the answer sheet, since after all this is a worksheet not a quiz. Just make sure that you do not cheat right off the bat, and actually attempt the questions. They are in no way challenging, and you will breeze through them.

This is a learning tool which I found to bear fruit in my classrooms. Unfortunately, I lost the original file for the high school, so I made a new one for the older students, who aren't convicted to so many rules.
So, teachers, you might be wondering why a Happy Ticket would lighten up the mood of the classroom and increase their concentration. Well, based on my experience, all students like stickers. That's a fact, except for very slight differences, such as boys preferring color coding more commonly in learning than girls.
But to give a sticker there has to be an occasion, such as solving the homework correctly or excelling a quiz. However, what about the hard-working students who don't get the perfect marks? The Happy Tickets and Sad Tickets help to keep the classroom in shape and remain focused on having good manners and not disturbing others. The sad ticket is not with me at the moment, but below is the resource free to download and print. Make your classrooms more fun!
