Hello lovely year 10s!

As we have discussed, we will be going over a new topic of grammar very soon.

One topic we will be looking at is modals.

1. Please find a link below to learn/ remind yourselves about modals, their structure and their uses.

2. Next, complete the following exercises. You can check and correct them yourselves to get a good idea of where you are before we start them together.

Please ensure that at least three of these exercises are completed. If you have time, do them all to get a head start. COPY and PASTE your exercises into a word document. I will want to see evidence of this on Friday.

EXTRA: The Prime minister of the UK made quite an important speech on Tuesday... 

Have a look at these articles (and any others you might find!) and see what different people think of her plans.

I would love to hear your thoughts about this and remember, the more you read, the better your English will become!
