A2 - Collaborative Activity: Highway Code

Highway code is an online grammar game from Let's have fun with English. The game is a great excuse to revise must for obligation, mustn't for prohibition, can/can't for permission and should for advice.

Before we play, we must get familiar with the game by reading the rules. The rules page will give us access to all the other components of the game:

- You need a driving licence that you can download if you wish.

- You need to get acquainted with the road and traffic vocabulary as well as with the modal verbs. You can do all this from here, with the added bonus that there is and audio file for each of the vocabulary items, which will enable you to get the pronunciation right.

- Finally, you are given the solutions to all the questions in the game.













Although it's better for four-to-six players, I can't see any reason why we can't play on our own. Thus, you'll practise and revise modal verbs in a funny way. Have a look at the board game and write sentences using the modal verbs must, mustn't, can/can't and should.

Ready? Let's start making sentences!!!!
