Scrambled but Perfect

In this worksheet, students reconstruct a scrambled story written entirely in the present perfect tense. They must determine the correct order of the six mixed-up sentences by writing the number of each sentence in the blank. Once the sequence is restored, students retell the full story in their own words using complete sentences in the present perfect tense. This activity strengthens comprehension, sequencing skills, and mastery of has/have + past participle forms. It also reinforces how the present perfect tense can be used to show completed achievements, preparations, and shared experiences.
