I am sure you will like this card game about the Royal Family. It can be integrated into the lesson "The UK is a constitutional monarchy" (Grade 9 Unit 5). The rules are inside the file. The rules seem to be long and complicated, however, do not be lazy, read them carefully and you will find the game quite interesting. It's a nice opportunity to practise speaking.

A very simple video with subtitles to fit the same lesson i.e. "The UK is a consitutional monarchy"

It is a True/False activity for the video above.
Before watching the video project the sentences on the screen by pressing F5.
Ask students to read the sentences and guess if they are True or False.
Play the video and tell students to check their guesses. You can also click anywhere on the presentation to reveal the answers.
Hope you will find the material useful. Waiting for your comments 😁

Tomorrow I will share one awesome activity that can be adapted for any topic. Stay tuned 👀👂😇😄

Here's the activity that my students and I enjoy immensely - Sleeping Pandas 🐼🐼🐼🐼. It allows you to practice listening and speaking. There's also focus on sentence structure. The activity was shared by David Chiesa, a language teaching fellow from the US, at a conference in Tashkent a few years ago. It has become one of my favourites since then.
