Procedure (84-90 minutes)
Procedure: Write on board: What had you done before class today? What would have happened if you hadn’t come? Each student answers both using past perfect and third conditional. Do it as a hot potato chain — toss a ball to the next person after responding.
Activity 1 Procedure: Use Bamboozled platform Categories could include: Clinic Mistakes Bad Advice If I Had Known… Real Regrets Each team chooses a category and answers a prompt using the correct third conditional form. Activity 2 Procedure: Label Jenga blocks (or slips of paper drawn from a box) with: Past Perfect prompts: "I had never..." / "By the time I arrived..." Third Conditional prompts: "If I had known..." / "I wouldn’t have forgotten..." Students pull a block or draw a slip and must form a sentence. If they hesitate or make a mistake, their team loses a point. Activity 3 Procedure: Display a pyramid of 3 levels: Easy: complete the sentence Medium: fix the grammar Hard: create a question in third conditional Teams choose difficulty, answer a prompt, and earn points accordingly. Example prompts: Easy: If we hadn’t forgotten the appointment, ___ Medium: He would has call the client → (correct it) Hard: Create a question using "Had you ever...?"
Procedure: Students are given 5 incorrect third conditional or past perfect sentences. In teams, they: Spot the mistakes Rewrite the sentences correctly Then the class reviews and chooses the funniest or best correction.
