A recommendation for an old but excellent past simple worksheet.
 
http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=229699#thetop

I downloaded this worksheet by aguniaa a while ago and it �s called A Murder in a Country House . 

I just wanted to tell you all about because it was amazing and you might not find it  [newbies] because it was posted in 2009. 
 
It kept my students engaged for the whole lesson, they worked in groups and just loved working out the murder mystery �who done it � story while practicing the past simple. They even miraculously spoke English for the whole lesson too.

It was a very satisfying lesson and it wouldn �t have been as good without the help from here.
Thanks to all who continually wow us with your hard work and contributions!!!Without them my lessons wouldn �t be as good as what they are. 
Thanks and have a gr8 evening

PS: Victor , how about once a week allowing  a few free [maybe 10] downloads of the older stuff so it doesn �t get forgotten , because there are some gems there that aren �t within some the new people /member �s reach ...what do you think?
