This is a 4 slide ppt presentation of the passive voice explained step by step. It was originally 6 because the first two aimed to remind the students how passives work in Spanish so that they could understand it better. Maybe it would be good to introduce it the same way in other languages.
I also show how passives work when there are two objects and how to order the sentence if there are other complements (time/place). I think it is very useful and explained in a way that students don´t have to learn the passive structure for each tense but conjugate the verb to be according to the tense in the active (so before learning the passives they should know how to conjugate very well the tenses in order not to have mistakes). Hope you like it :)
