A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Give learners page 1 and keep the page 2 answer key separate. Its question forms are targets; personal answers are models, not required wording.
- Explain why the unconfirmed visit in the example uses might.
- Complete A with the requested might, could, may and might cues; answer about short breaks, travel delays, routines and slow replies.
- Reorder B's future learning, weather and waiting-place questions; ask a partner for two possible explanations or outcomes.
Support and extension
Keep a base verb after each modal and do not add do-support. The cues are target forms, not fixed probability percentages; accept differing explanations supported by context.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
