This grammar unit covered modal auxiliary verbs, passive voice, relative clauses, phrasal verbs. Modal verbs are used before the verb to add meaning and can change the strength of a statement or question. This can be confusing for students, because there are different meanings for each and different situations when each is appropriate, but role-playing, writing rules, and guessing the true meaning of signs are helpful ways to give students practice with this type of language. Passive voice takes the focus off the agent and puts it on the object, not changing the meaning, but the focus. Relative clauses give more information about the noun in the sentence and can either be essential to the meaning of the sentence, in which case commas are not used, or not essential, in which case commas are used. I discovered that I do not always use those forms correctly. Phrasal verbs have 2-3 words together, but operate as one. Some of them can be separated and meaning is retained and some of them cannot. This is also confusing for students, but practicing them as vocabulary words within a natural context is helpful. Teachers can also try to use them in everyday speech with the students and help them become more familiar.
