Are you ready for lots of quick-fire ENGLISH GRAMMAR PRACTICE? Grammar Gulch is holding its biggest-ever English grammar showdown and you’re invited. Take on ‘Terrible Tense’ Tex and your friends, family or teacher in this Wild West English dual! This quick-on-the draw’ game TEACHES and TESTS you on English grammar and is packed with questions. With 3 LEVELS to test you, Elementary, Intermediate and Advanced, it also tests your REACTION SPEED in this cowboy-style shoot-out. They only shoot tomatoes though!

2 FUN GAMES to enjoy!

1 PLAYER GAME

Can you take on ‘Terrible Tense’ Tex, one of the fastest grammar gunslingers in town? You’ll be playing for our local grammar hero, Claude ‘The Clause’ Clunes.

Look at the sentences and decide which of the four answers correctly fills the gap? Choose your answer to shoot your cowboy’s tomato gun. If you are correct, then you’ll give Tex a faceful of tomato. If you are wrong, it’ll be you that’s tasting the tomato. You only have 15 seconds to answer before Tex shoots (he’s a bit of a cheat!).

Each round has 10 questions and each correct answer wins you a star. Get 8 stars to beat Tex and make your own cool GRAMMAR GULCH SHERIFF’S POSTER to share with your friends and family. If you get hit three times, it’s game over. You can check your answers at the end for extra grammar practice.

2 PLAYER GAME

Take on your friends, classmates or students in this 2 player, quick draw grammar game? Choose the cowboy you each want to play for. Will you be ‘Terrible Tense’ Tex, or Pete ‘Present Perfect’ Peel? If you answer correctly, you’ll give your opponent faceful of tomato. It’s the best of 5 questions to win. It’s not just about your knowledge of grammar, it’s about your reaction time too. You can check your answers at the end for more grammar practice.

MAKE YOUR OWN GRAMMAR SHERIFF POSTER!

Each question you get right earns you a star on your Grammar Gulch Sheriff’s poster. If you beat Tex, you’ll be able to add your photo or choose one of our cowboy/cowgirl characters. Add your name, cowboy hats, beards. moustaches and stars to your photo, and make it look old fashioned with our fun photo effects. Then, share your success with your friends and family.
