Notes for teachers
Part 1 checks form (has/have, past participles), Part 2 focuses on the meaning and word order of ever, never, just, already and yet, and Part 3 uses a short email to test meaning in context. Typical errors targeted include wrong auxiliaries (she have), past simple forms after have (have saw), double negatives (haven't never) and mixing up already and yet. As a follow-up, ask students to write a short email about a trip using each time word at least once.
