Unlike me, I'm sure some of you are interested in, or practise sports! Here is a revision lesson on some of the verbs we commonly use to talk about sports. All you need to do is choose the correct verb in each sentence.

Try this instead

Hi, thanks for letting us know how you did.

Instead of saying "I did two wrongs", say:

"I got two wrong"
"I made two mistakes"

Good luck,

Chris
