Write the Rules – ESL Writing Activity (A2–B1)

This printable and online-friendly writing activity gets your students working in pairs or small groups to create realistic (or ridiculous!) rules for places like a swimming pool, a hospital, or a natural history museum.

Each group writes 3–5 rules for each location using the useful vocabulary and structures provided (e.g. must, mustn’t, no…, don’t…, always, never). After comparing rules with others, the class collaborates to create a master rule list for each place—choosing the most useful, funniest, or most creative rules.

Great for practicing modals, imperatives, and classroom collaboration in a fun and engaging way!

I have been teaching English abroad since receiving my CELTA certificate in Poland in 2018. I enjoy tracking my individual students’ development but love having lessons with big groups! Now that I teach online, I am accompanied by my sidekicks Olaf, Mała, Pirate and Bandit on a regular basis.

It takes a team of 13 to create and produce this material. In order for that to continue, please think about purchasing your own subscription to ESL Expertz and encourage your colleagues to do the same. We appreciate your confidence and support!
