Task 1,2

 I  have been  fascinated by the site http://moviesegmentstoassessgrammargoals.blogspot.com/

It contains the type of exercises I have been looking for a long time.  The main idea of this site is to show   short videos and to train some grammar material on the basis of the stories, shown in them. there are worksheets on most  grammar topics studied at school.
