Collocations - Business English Worksheets and Games
Here is a useful business collocations worksheet to help students learn and practice verb-noun collocations for business meetings and discussions. Students begin by matching verbs to nouns to create collocations for meetings and discussions. Students then underline a verb-noun collocation mistake in each sentence and write the correct verb next to the sentence in its correct form. Finally, students complete a crossword by reading sentence clues and writing the missing verbs in the sentences and crossword in their correct forms.
In this productive business collocations worksheet and game, students learn and practice adjective-noun collocations used in business and then play a game matching adjectives to nouns in sentences. First, students cross out the incorrect adjective-noun collocation for each adjective. Students then use the adjectives to complete collocations in sentences. After that, students play a matching game to practice the adjective-noun collocations. In groups, students take turns picking up a sentence card and reading it to the group using the word 'blank' for the missing adjective. The other students listen and try to find the adjective card on the table that matches the noun in the sentence. The first student to place their hand on the correct adjective card and say it, wins the pair of cards. If a student chooses the wrong adjective, they are out of the round. The student with the most pairs of cards at the end of the game wins. As an extension, students play a pelmanism game using the two sets of cards.
