English Banana.comBig Grammar Book2IntroductionHello again . . . !. . . and welcome to big grammar book 2! Why another Big Grammar Book? Wasn’t the firstone big enough? Well, it’s eleven years since I wrote the first book and it has been, without adoubt, the most popular of all my English Banana books. It’s always the first book that peopleask me about; it’s always cited as the most useful and valuable of my books; indeed it hasbeen downloaded for free hundreds of thousands of times! No matter how much I love andpromote my other children (I mean, books!) BGB is what people want. So, I often used to jokeabout making a sequel: give the people what they want. This summer I thought: why not?Like its older sibling, BGB 2 is packed with 101 printable worksheets for teaching andimproving grammar skills in English. The topics are wide and varied, starting with EssentialEnglish worksheets that cover the basics, like the alphabet, days, months, and telling thetime; then tenses (a lot about tenses!), then irregular verbs, question forms, word order insentences, parts of English, uncountable nouns, and so on! If you have used the first BGB,you will know what to expect from this one. Around 25% of the worksheets in this book areclosely modelled on activities in BGB 1, for example Full Stops 1 & 2 (pp.68-69).The material starts off at beginner level, with the alphabet worksheets, then getsprogressively more difficult, while staying in Elementary (A1 / A2) level. Only towards the enddo things get “tougher”, with articles, conditionals, and phrasal verbs making their inevitableappearance! Don’t worry – all the answers and notes for use are included at the back of thisbook.English teachers can use big grammar book 2 in class, although it may be better to use theworksheets for homework and let students focus on speaking and listening and group work –producing language – in class. It is ideal for private study – i.e. homework or self-study – andalso for use in online lessons. Teachers can adapt the worksheets in this book, and I wouldpositively encourage them to treat many of the pages as templates for producing their ownactivities. For example, the sentence building worksheets (from p.60) would be ideal foradaptation, among many others. Please feel free to download and adapt the .doc Worddocument files for each page which are available at our website. By the way, this is the firstEnglish Banana.com book to be published straight into the public domain. This means thatanybody can print, copy, adapt, sell, give away, and otherwise use this work – for commercialand non-commercial purposes. I hope you enjoy learning English with big grammar book 2!Remember, a good understanding of English grammar will open doors of opportunity.Thank you to all my students who have good-naturedly tried out these worksheets in class.Special thanks to my friends Iramaia and Marcelo who have been kind enough to readthrough and test out different parts of this book. Your feedback has been invaluable! If youhave any questions or comments, I would love to hear your feedback too!
