PAST SIMPLE to BE

(PASSATO SEMPLICE DEL VERBO ESSERE)

Questa Videogrammatica Inglese di Raffaele Nardella, docente di inglese presso il Liceo scientifico "Salvador Allende" di Milano, propone un'ampia gamma di argomenti grammaticali fondamentali della lingua inglese.

Questa unità presenta come argomento di studio il Past Simple del verbo essere.

Il video fa da supporto alla spiegazione dell'argomento, fornendo spunti e suggerimenti; mentre gli audio consentono l'ascolto delle parole o frasi presenti nella pagina.

Al termine dell'unità è possibile svolgere 5 esercizi interattivi con feedback immediato, le cui tipologie spaziano dal riempimento degli spazi vuoti all'abbinamento, dalla risposta breve alla scelta multipla, dal riordino della frase al cruciverba
