Another great lesson plan from Tim’s Free English Lesson plans!
Hi Tim,
I think the third sentence in the first exercise above should have a comma after the word ‘hotel’.
E.g. We arrived at the hotel, checked in and had a shower.
Likewise, I think the number seventh sentence in the second exercise should also have a comma after the word ‘USA’.
Hope you can clarify.
Thank you.
Wendy
