Match : Jumble - jumbled words activity on textivate

Match : Jumble.

Jumble works by jumbling up the right-hand side of your matching items, and students have to click the items in the correct order.

Jumble only works if there are 3 or more words on the right-hand side of the match. (If some of your matches have fewer than 3 words on the right-hand side, these are removed from the activity.)

Here is an embedded example (French):

FRENCH - être (multiple tenses) 1st person...

Another resource blog, this time with a bit of tense revision for ÊTRE in various tenses (including with modals) in the first person (i.e. the "je" form).

Worksheets

Scroll down for a few pdf worksheets (in no particular order). 

Note that you wouldn't expect students to do all of these (that would be daft!), but I've included all the possibilities so that you can see what is available.

Adding accented characters to textivate...

OK, so there is no textivate-specific way to add accented characters or special characters to textivate.

Note that most textivate exercises DO NOT require the student to type in accented characters. The only exception to this is the Gap-fill (and user-defined Gap-fill) activity, and only when no word list is provided. 

But as a teacher creating your own resources, you will want to make sure that all the special characters are included in your resource.

Tabs on textivate

We've added 5 tabs to textivate, as shown above.

The idea behind this is to make it simpler, so that users no longer need to type all of their bizarrely formatted text into a single text box, taking care to put everything in the correct order. You can now add your data via the first 4 tabs -- Text, Match, Extras, Sequence -- and textivate automatically combines it into the "Show all" tab.

The "Show all" tab is the equivalent of the old-style textivate textbox. It is also the default open tab when you land on the index page.

Let's run through the 5 tabs in the order in which they appear, left to right:
