Reading 1Modals
Reading 2Uses
Reading 3Certainty

A modal verb chart for students learning English, to see what can, must and should each mean. The three charts show six modals with a tile each; group examples under ability, permission and advice; and rank must, should, may and might on a scale of certainty. Each comes as a bright flat poster, a crayon hand-drawn version or a boho pastel print. Type a direction such as would, and the same three styles follow it.

Frequently asked questions

What do the nine pictures show?
Three charts in three styles: six modal verbs, each on a tile; three example rows for ability, permission and advice; and a scale of certainty running from must at the top to might at the bottom.
How do the three styles differ?
Bright flat is a clean poster in red, yellow, blue and green. Crayon hand-drawn has wobbly outlines and paper grain. Boho pastel is a calmer print in sage, terracotta and mustard.
Can I change the modal?
Yes. Type the direction you want, such as would, and the chart follows it. That is a request, not a fixed result, so check the words before you print.
Can I print it?
Yes. Each picture is a tall portrait page with a margin, which suits a wall or a notebook page.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
