However you plan to combine these approaches, offers a wide variety of worksheets to help make sure your students can read, write, hear, and speak correctly when it comes to modal verbs. Some teachers start with the simplest modal verbs - “can” and “should” - and build up the list from there, using a variety of reading and speaking exercises. The next-best approach is to give examples - but it’s not always easy for students to guess the difference between, say, “can” and “could” from context alone. A lot of other languages don’t have exact one-word equivalents for verbs like “should” and “would,” which means direct word-for-word translation probably isn’t an option. Teaching modal verbs takes some strategy. Can you teach modal verbs? Will you be able to? Should you look for even better ways to teach them? The answers to all these modal questions are “Yes!” - and that’s why offers 601 modal verb worksheets to bring some fresh, fun ideas to your ESL classroom.
