Pedagogical Guide
Objective & content
A one-page B1 printable on adjectives of travel and transportation, built on eight synonym pairs such as fast / quick and crowded / packed. Students draw a line from each of the eight words in the left column to the word in the right column that means something very similar; the right column is printed in a different order.
Pedagogical guide
The pairs fit journeys: a fast or quick train, a crowded or packed bus, a direct or straight route. Some are loose (comfortable / convenient, public / shared, regular / standard), so ask students to picture a trip and choose the closest meaning in that context.
Suggested procedure
- (5 min) Read the left-hand column aloud, then the right-hand column, which is printed in a different order.
- (10 min) Students work alone in pencil and draw a line from each left-hand word to the word of very similar meaning on the right.
- (5 min) Pairs compare their lines and defend any difference before you check.
- (5 min) Correct with the answer key page. Ask for a short phrase about a journey for one pair, such as a crowded or packed train.
Adaptations
[S] Fold the sheet so that only four left-hand words show, and start with the clearest pairs, such as fast / quick.
[A] Students plan a short trip and write three sentences that use words from the sheet.
Materials & prerequisites
One printed copy per student and a pencil rather than a pen. Keep the answer key page for yourself.
