Gerunds Running Dictation

(TESOL Worksheets--Gerunds)
Portrait: drive, docs, pub, Landscape View: drive, docs, pub

[The students are put into groups of 3 and each group is given an answer sheet.  The group nominates one person to go and look at the quotes, and two people to write down the quotes.  The student who looks at the quotes can not write, and the students who write can not go outside the room to look at the quotes.  The quotes outside the room are written in direct speech, but the students have to change them into reported speech.  Then after the activity is finished, I hand out the answer sheets and have the students check their answers (or have other groups check each other.)  I'm still experimenting with how best to decide a winner.  Sometimes the winner is the first group to finish without mistakes.  In classes where there are no flawless groups, then each correct work is worth one point.
In order to fit into blogger, the copy and paste version below is in portrait view, but it works better in landscape view.  See the Google Docs versions above.]
