Final Project

Hello students! 
The Passive Voice

Welcome to this new activity from the English class.
In this activity we are going to talk about Passive Voice and Verbs. Why verbs? Well, because verbs are an important part in this topic. You have to learn the verbs by heart in its differents tenses (infinitive, past, past participle):


  • Regular and Irregular Verbs  
  • Passive Voice grammar
  • When to use a passive
  • How to form a passive in all the tenses


Remember this activity has to be done individually and has to be delivered the class before the first partial, if you do not delivery it after the partial you won't be able to present the exam.
