Homopho game fill_the_blanks[1][1]
The document appears to be a series of questions from an English class homophones game. It includes 20 multiple choice questions testing students on common homophone pairs like there/their/they're, to/too/two, see/sea, your/you're, read/red, road/rode, hear/here, right/write, blue/blew, and asks students to choose the correct homophone for each blank in each sentence. It provides feedback for right and wrong answers, and asks at the end if the student wants to play again.
My last vacation
I took a vacation to Medellin, Colombia with my family to visit my father who lives there. We had a fun-filled trip where we went horseback riding, to the pool with friends, played soccer, had lunch at the mall eating delicious local dishes, went shopping and enjoyed ice cream. We visited several parks, including taking pictures at Park Botero and buying gifts. It was a great family trip during which I was able to spend quality time with my father and experience Colombian culture.

It provides examples of using "had to" with infinitives and in interrogative sentences. It also gives examples of "could/couldn't" to talk about ability or lack of ability in the past. Finally, it includes some incomplete sentences to practice using these past tense forms correctly.
