Edpuzzle activity about the passive voice

https://edpuzzle.com/media/67d1dc70eff936f7139093b4 



I liked the Edpuzzle activity carried out by teacher Sandra Hernández about families. I´ve decided to use the same tool to work on the passive voice with my 3rd year of CSE group.

Stage 1

I select  a ready -made passive voice video. Then, I project the video in whole-class live mode. Students answer embedded questions.

Stage 2

Later, I pause strategically at natural breaks to ask verbal questions: "Raise hands if this sentence is passive: 'The test was taken by students'".


Stage 3

I ask students to write conversions on their notebooks.


After the video ends, I will use a think-pair-share activity:

1.   Think: Students write 2 passive sentences about classroom objects ("The markers were placed here")

2.      Pair: Exchange sentences with a partner to identify the agent

3.      Share: Volunteers write examples on the board

Why this works:

  • Zero Prep: Uses existing videos with no editing time
  • Formative Checks: verbal responses show understanding

Tip: We can bookmark 2 or 3 passive voice videos in our Edpuzzle account for instant access during lessons.

  1. Hello!
    My name is Mercedes, a teacher of English at the EOI and I’ve just had a look at your blog. I like the colourful and attractive design you have used for your blog. Apart from that, the entries are easy to read and understand. As a suggestion for improvement, I would recommend you can insert jump breaks in your entries. That way it is easier to navigate, especially when looking for a specific entry.
