A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Give learners pages 1–2; keep the answer key on page 3 separate until they have compared answers.

  1. Read the gallery rules and separate showing a booking from prohibited flash photography or drinks.
  2. Complete A–C using the pool rules; keep must followed by a base verb.
  3. Write three context-specific rules and plan a trip using required, forbidden and optional actions.

Support and extension

Provide rule symbols. Extend by contrasting mustn't with don't have to; the worksheet's imagined venue rules are not universal rules for all galleries or pools.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
