Present Simple chain stories/ consequences

Sit in a circle or circles and take one copy of the worksheet each. Fill in the top gap to make a (true or imaginary) sentence about your usual daily routine. Fold along the dotted line so the next person can’t see what you have written, and pass the worksheet to the person on your left. Continue writing and passing until the whole of each copy is written on and folded up. When all the stories are finished, pass them one more time, open the one that you receive, read it, and tell the class what things in the story that you have make sense and which things don’t make sense.
