Gerunds and infinitives

 Hi everyone!

Today I am sharing a new version of one of my most popular activities: the assessment of gerunds and infinitives through songs. I look forward to having a third version, that's why I await your recommendations! I want to thank my student Celeste Giraudo for her help in the making of this one.

Gerunds and infinitives




I'm sharing an activity for students to practice the use of gerunds and infinitives through songs. Students are
supposed to choose the correct verb alternative (gerund or infinitive) and then listen in order to check. Hopefully, the power of  music will help our students remember the verbs patterns.






Can you think of any other examples?

I hope you find it useful.

Here's the worksheet.
