Travel can be fun! leeson plan
This lesson plan teaches students about traveling to different countries in the past tense. Students will learn how to use mind maps to organize their ideas and will write a short text about a past trip. They will then present their writing to the class, using pictures and magazines. The teacher models writing a sample text about a trip to London and has students work in groups to create their own mind map and text. Students are assessed on their grammar, verb conjugation, and pronunciation during the speaking presentation. To finish, students decorate the classroom with posters about their trip.
