It is useful to see the play mode to help explain the way to set up an activity.
Pupils will be presented with sentences that the teacher has entered and asked which tense they are in. They will then need to rearrange the sentence into the opposite tense:
Firstly enter text in the 'Quiz text' box. This text will form the question (seen on the first screen above)
Then the 'Rewrite text' box. This forms the start of the question in the second screen (above)
Sentence 1: Decide which tense to create your first sentence with e.g. present
Sentence 2: This sentence needs to be an opposing (different) tense e.g. past
If alternative answers are acceptable for a sentence then enter them on a new line in the text box.
Once you have typed in your sentences you can opt to make the 1st sentence the starting sentence. In the example above, it means your pupils will always see the past tense sentence first, and be asked to change into the present.
It is important that any punctuation you use it consistent between each sentence as this can affect how you pupils complete the activity.
