Present Perfect card game
Cut out & mix the cards. Divide your class in groups with roughly the same No of cards. In turn, groups use their cards, 1 at a time, to make correct questions. 1 point for the group who uses the last card (question mark). You may also give 1 point to the group who can answer the question correctly. Takes some preparation but students like it!

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - When it�s gone
Go through the listed prepositions first, make sure your students know them; then have them fill in the gaps and play the song to check if they got it right. I take the chance to ask them how much they know abut this particular music style, whether they like it or not and why, etc.
