Have You Ever Game: Present Perfect Questions Worksheet

The Have You Ever Game is a great way to kick-start your class because it can really get your students moving. And getting your students moving around is never a bad thing.

First, start by reviewing the present perfect verb form. That is, the action is complete in the past for the present perfect. In other words, you are looking at the result right now without any words referring to time.

For example, “Have you ever been to Disneyland?” is in present perfect verb form. The basic structure for present perfect questions is as follows: Have you ever, never, already, yet + Present perfect?

Second, start by telling students there is a ‘yes’ side and ‘no’ side. A nice touch is to add yes and no posters to the wall to help remind them which side is which. As you make ‘Have you ever’ questions, your students can run to either side of the room.

There’s something satisfying about investigating your students while building their listening skills at the same time. Overall, my students can’t resist mixer-style games like this.
