ESL Intermediate Grammar Sorts- High School ELL Newcomer Activities, Practice

Need a low-prep activity to reinforce grammar concepts while keeping students engaged? These sentences have English langauge learners sorting and recognizing language patterns, analyzing and discussing grammar, and build accuracy through hands-on practice.

You get 16 grammar concepts:

✅ Past Perfect
✅ Reflexive Pronouns
✅ Gradable & Ungradable Adjectives
✅ Intensifiers
✅ Too or So
✅ Present Perfect & Present Perfect Continuous
✅ Future Perfect & Future Continuous
✅ Used to & Get used to
✅ Modals Can, Could, May for Permission
✅ Modals Mustn’t & Have to for Prohibition & Obligation
✅ First Conditional
✅ 2nd Conditional
✅ 3rd Conditional
✅ Relative Clauses
✅ Reported Speech
✅ Active or Passive Voice

Also included are:

➡️ speaking stems to support beginner language production

➡️ differentiation ideas to assess multiple levels in one class

NOTE: These are all included in my 17 week ESL intermediate curriculum.

Of course, it is fun and games, but students will:

✔ notice grammar patterns and language structures

✔ discuss and justifying their thinking with peers

✔ prepare for more accurate writing and speaking

✔ gain confidence before producing language independently

And what do I love the most? These games are:

✔ require little prep once printed

✔ make abstract grammar concepts more concrete

✔ work with whole groups, small groups, partners, or independent learners

✔ a simple, informal assessment that reveal mistakes quickly

✔ make student thinking visable and encourage academic discussions

16 activites for less than .50 cents each! Let’s go!


Want a sneak peak? Here are 2 FREE GRAMMAR SORTS to check out!

Need just a few activities?

Do not buy these if you have already bought my 17 week Intermediate Curriculum which has these sorts and everything else you need to teach: notes, board work, partner activities, worksheets, reading & writing lessons, writing gallery walks, listening & speaking activities, and unit assessments!
