Mark's note: The first set is made up of activities slightly younger children might do at recess. The second set is designed to be things older children might do.

These are great sets for introducing 'do' for regular actions or the present simple forms. It's a very natural structure for these activities and I don't need to explain the grammar when I use these cards.

'Do you play dodge ball at recess?'
'I tease girls at recess.'
'Kenny bullies kids.'

These are actually designed to introduce adverbs of frequency; always, sometimes, and never. (I also add in 'during' with the second set.)

'I always hang out by the tree during recess.'
'I sometimes play in the dirt during recess.'
'I never tease girls during recess.'

Both sets can be used like this. Although, it's not necessary to teach these parts.

For another good set to practice present simple, see the hobbies set. It also has an explanation for teaching 'used to' which will also work with the recess cards.
