MODALS
Modals are often used to talk about abilities and possibilities (or in the lack of them).
The modals we are going to focus on in this activity sheet are those that talk about
abilities and possibilities. They are can, may and might.
Before we talk about the specific modals, here are the general characteristics of
modals you should remember.

Modals, when joined with „not‟ to form a negative statement, can be contracted.
Examples:
I cannot run. I can’t run.
I will not run. I won’t run.
I could not dance. I couldn’t dance.
I would not forget. I wouldn’t forget.
I must not fail. I mustn’t fail.
Now, let‟s talk about the modals that tell ability and possibility.
