This lesson plan focuses on teaching the simple past tense and having students summarize a chapter of The Phantom of the Opera using that tense. Students will be divided into groups to underline verbs in different tenses in their assigned chapter. They will then find images to represent the underlined verbs and create a presentation. Finally, they will give speeches to other groups summarizing their chapter using the slides and simple past tense. The objectives are for students to review simple past rules, pronounce "-ed" endings correctly, and remember main verbs from the book.
