This complete grammar resource on modal verbs is designed to support KS2 teachers in providing a structured, interactive approach to teaching modal verbs. The resource is divided into three parts:
**Part 1: Lesson – This section introduces students to the concept of modal verbs, focusing on how they convey levels of certainty (e.g. might, should, will). Through relatable scenarios and characters, students explore different modal verbs and how they express possibilities, probabilities, and certainties in context. The lesson encourages students to work in pairs, make notes, and prepare for further activities, enhancing understanding through collaborative learning.**
Part 2: Peer Teaching and Group Activity – Students use the notes from Part 1 to teach the concept to another pair, reinforcing their understanding through teaching. A group video activity is included to further engage students and provide an opportunity for them to present and solidify their grasp of modal verbs in a creative format.
Part 3: Self-Assessment Q&A – To support retention, this part includes questions that allow students to assess their knowledge and reflect on their understanding of modal verbs.
This resource offers a blend of structured learning, peer teaching, and self-assessment to support teachers in engaging students with the nuances of modal verbs in an enjoyable and effective way.
