Brainstorm a list of regular and irregular verbs with the class. Then brainstorm a list of linking expressions. Using the prompt 'Yesterday was a very strange day...' Have each student choose one verb and write a sentence using it in the simple past. The sentences should remain relevant to the prompt. Collect the papers, and have the students decide what order to place them in to describe a series of strange events that happened in someone's day. Work together to use the linking expressions to make the sentences fit together.
