o ESL Galaxy, an online ESL resource, this activity is excellent for getting elementary ESL students to practice adverbs of frequency (i.e., sometimes, often, never, usually). Design a worksheet with three columns. Column one will contain questions prompting the use of frequency-indicating adverbs in the answer, such as "How often do you eat fish?" The second column is for the student's answer; for example, "I always eat fish." After the students have answered all of the questions themselves in the second column, ask them to interview other students (using the "how often do you..." prompt) to find two other students in the class who have given the same answer to each question. Their names go in the third column beside each question.
and I really don't think that extensive worksheets provide a particularly authentic experience - such a thing mainly just erodes the power of the message within the video, takes away the inherent pleasure in learning from TED speakers.
