First Conditional gap fill and sentence match
A gap fill and sentence matching exercise. For the sentence matching, you just cut out the sentence halves and the students work alone or in pairs to match the halves together to form complete sentences. Another idea is to give each student one half of a sentence and they have to find the student in the class with the other half.

I designed it for my coworkers doing public health research, which explains why it might be a little dry/scientific sounding and also explains the downer of a topic. (Malnutrition, yay!) Anyway, it�s good for academic writing...
