An adjective is a word that describes something (a noun) or someone (a person). Adjectives sometimes appear after the verb To Be He is short. She is tall. Adjectives sometimes appear before a noun. Red car Old hat BUT… Sometimes you want to use more than one adjective to describe something (or someone). What happens if a hat is both old AND ugly? Do we say… an ugly old hat OR an old ugly hat? An ugly old hat is correct because a certain order for adjectives is expected(Note, you may hear the other version old ugly hat, though it doesn't sound natural) So what is the correct order of adjectives when we put them before a noun or the thing they describe?

BATTLESHIP: IRREGULAR VERBS | ELT-CATION
Much to learn, you still have. – Joda. Despite the evidence that the number of irregular verbs is declining in the English language, there is no danger they will disappear, and the struggle will continue. There are many attempts to find a shortcut in learning irregular verbs, yet with all the options and “magic tricks” available, learning these verbs requires much memorization, drilling and practice. Today I will show how I use the Battleship game to drill and practise irregular verbs in a fun way. Before the game: Each player will need two 10×10 grids – one with irregular verbs in each square, and one blank grid. Click the Grids to download them.

Pernilla's English Classroom: Peek of the week
I encounter students on a weekly basis who say "I hate reading" or "I just can't focus on a book" ...times are changing - a great deal - and it's a fact that teenagers are becoming more digitally literate, but unfortunately more BOOK illiterate. I find this to be a necessary part of our digital evolution, however I also see it as a tragic part of a lost era where kids today are finding it hard to focus on a book, or anything else, for a longer period of time. I still remember the books that I read as a nerdy teenager, the books that became a part of my daily life, the books that still linger with me because I was sucked into them and could never leave them, books that haunted me, books that taught me a valuable lesson or two, books that made me realize that there was a different, mesmerizing, world outside of my own room, books that I need to recommend to anyone reading this. Peek of the week 18 takes a look at GREAT books: Lord of the flies by William Golding The Body by Stephen King
