First Conditional

Hey there! Do you know how to express conditions and consequences in English? We use the first conditional to talk about possibilities in the present or in the future, to talk about things that are likely to happen. In first conditional sentences there are two clauses: the if clause is used with present forms and it includes the condition. The future clause includes will or won't plus an infinive and it expresses the consequence. This is just a short introduction but there's much more to learn about conditionals. If you practise, you will learn soon. Good luck with the exercise!




This game is called Cannonball Fun and it's going to help you learn first conditional sentences. You'll see the beginning of a sentence and you'll have to match it to its ending so that the full sentence makes sense. You'll start the game with ten cannonballs. Whenever you land a ball on top of a correct answer, you will get one more cannonball. Use the arrow keys to control the cannon. Hold down the spacebar to build up the speed. To launch the cannonball, just stop pressing the spacebar. If you run out of ammunition, the game will be over. Good luck! How many sentences can you make?
