Review the days of the week using the cards. They come in different size.

Use the flashcards to introduce and practice the Grammar Tense.

simple present flashcards

Place the days of the week on the board. Introduce each verb flashcard and place it under a day of the week and say a sentence.                                   Teacher: Tom cooks on Monday.  Or  Teacher: Tom cooks on Mondays.

I want to state that checking on several book series there are both ways, use the one that suits your curriculum.

Write or circle the letter S of the verb. Write in a different color the word ON.  Have the students try to say a sentence for each day of the week.

Introduce more grammar points using the cards.




I made a letter S on a stick. I cut the biggest “S” I found in an old magazine a glued it onto a craft stick. Use it to introduce or to remind students to use the 3rd person singular S.

I am making the cards a little smaller for you to use for distance learning and on a small board. 

I glued a craft stick behind each one.

Here a video on how to use them to teach online.
