4th ESO STARTER UNIT: WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

STARTER UNITS are always about revising what you learnt during the past school year. Don't worry if you feel a bit rusty after the summer, we all tend to disconnect 😉!

We will start revising some vocabulary related to HEALTH and WELL-BEING. Click on the words to get to a Quizlet to practise it. If that one is too easy for you, here you have a more demanding version of it: HEALTH and WELL-BEING 2.

Time to revise some grammar. Verbal tenses are essential, so you must make sure you know everything about them.

PRESENT SIMPLE / PRESENT CONTINUOUS 

EXERCISES

MODAL VERBS are used all the time. They all share some common characteristics and are a bit tricky, because they can have different meanings:

ABILITY (CAN/COULD)

OBLIGATION (MUST/HAVE TO/MUSTN'T/DON'T HAVE TO)

ADVICE 

Let's have a look at some more vocabulary, this time ADJECTIVES to describe PERSONAL QUALITIES. Here you have a matching game:
