Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

- Revise the simple present form of verbs and their use to agree with the subject they follow.
- Have learners do an activity:
e. g. Write a letter to your friend telling him/her what you and your siblings do after school. Learners read their friendly letters in pairs.
- Guide learners to correct the wrong use of subjects and their appropriate verb forms that go with them if any. e.g. we eats - we eat.
- Have learners do peer editing to identify and correct errors.
