Welcome back, fellow EFL/ESL educators! I hope that the recent installment of the News Quiz did not only engage your students but also offered some valuable learning opportunities. Now, let's delve into a variety of language-focused follow-up activities. 

As in the past few years, these activities come in various formats. You'll find interactive drag'n'drop exercises on LearningApps, a matching activity on WordWall (Advanced level), interactive quiz on Quizizz (Intermediate level) and good old fashioned worksheets in editable Google Docs.

  2. Brilliant materials, Leo! I noticed an issue in the key of the phrase match on p8 of the Advanced PDF Review. The verbs in 6 and 7 are swapped. I think 7 should be "brought" Chandler to life and 8 "take an unexpected turn". Thank you for sharing all of the materials. Sometimes, I think it is downhill from here once we've done the News Quiz :)

    1. Thank you so much, Hannah, for leaving a comment and spotting a mistake, which also made me realise that the key on p8 onwards is missing altogether. I'll fix it and reupload. Thanks once again.
