Objectives & Sequence: This activity is intended to be used as a review of Grammar 3-2.

Intro Student 1 Student 2

Students work in pairs and open the corresponding page. On each page is a list of fourteen activities. Students should pretend they did the activities on their pages in the order listed the previous day.

In addition to this list is a link to an exercise which students should open and make a copy of. In this exercise, fourteen activities done by their partners are listed in jumbled order (with the exception of the first and last activities which have been identified). Students need to arrange these sentences in order by asking their partner. Questions need to be formed using the Past Simple and Past Perfect Simple. When students have finished arranging the sentences in their documents they should show their partners.

When you activated the crash alarm, had you already issued landing clearance?

Yes, I had.
