LESSON GUIDE
Test Your Grammar
Before starting the test, have the students go through the Grammar Cards from the
previous three units to review what they have learned. Tell the students to work with a
partner to ask and answer questions about the cards.
Ask the students to open their student books to Unit 16. Explain what they need to
do in each section of the test. Then ask them to answer all of the questions. When
everyone is finished, you can check the answers as a class or have the students
exchange books with a partner and check the answers that way. If the students
struggled with any of the test questions, review the material before moving on.
Review
Have the students play some fun card games with the Grammar Cards from units 13–
15 to continue practicing what they have learned. Here’s one game idea. Have the
students work in pairs. Ask them to put one set of their Grammar Cards in a pile and
shuffle them. They can take turns choosing cards and asking each other about them.
The pair that finishes asking about all their cards the fastest is the winner.
Unit Objectives:
1. Students will learn about negative sentences and questions in the past tense.

LESSON GUIDE
Grammar Board
Have the students look at the Grammar Board. Look at the pictures for the “didn’t”
sentences and read the sentences as a class. Explain to the students that we put
“did not (didn’t)” before the base form of verbs to make negative sentences in the
past tense. Then look at the pictures for the “did” questions and read the questions
and answers as a class. Tell the students that to make a yes/no question in the past
tense, we put “did” before the subject.
Let the students practice the grammar points with the Grammar Cards. Tell the
students to remove the Grammar Cards for the unit from their student books. Have
them work with a partner or individually to fill in the missing information on the cards
(they can either write the missing information or simply say it). Tell the students to
work with a partner to ask and answer questions about the cards.
