Use these 2 flexible resources with a mixed ability Beginners Adult ESL class. The Past Simple and Past Continuous/Past Progressive Tense are introduced in a context that is relevant to adult students with language that they will be able to use in their everyday lives. It is not for complete beginners as some prior knowledge is required. I suggest that the Past Simple lesson is done first, as the Past Continuous resource builds on this. It’s easy to use, just Print and GO. I’ve even included answers for some of the activities to make it easier for you to check the answers with the whole class, using Power Point. The language level of this lesson is higher than some of my other Beginner lessons, so depending on your class you may need to scaffold, go through with the class first or pair able/less able students. The lessons cover a lot of relevant elementary language: Reading and understanding simple text about familiar topics. Past Simple Tense - regular and irregular verbs Past Continuous tense – form and use. Question forms using the past simple and past continuous tense Everyday vocabulary Speaking practice – asking and answering questions An Introduction to writing complex sentences using because Guided writing Extension writing activity For complete details refer to the individual lesson descriptions This lesson prints to A4 paper and may have some UK/Australian spelling.

This is a bundle of three reading lessons suitable for a mixed ability beginner or low level Pre Intermediate ESL or Adult Migrant class. The lessons are based on Information Reports all with an Australian flavour which would be great for Australian Adult Migrant classes but they would also work with English learners in other countries as there is also opportunities to discuss and write about aspects of the students own culture or country. Some of the language will be challenging for Beginner students so it’s not suitable for complete Beginners (see my lesson My Family and I if you are looking for something for complete Beginners) but with some scaffolding it will be accessible to most good beginners or low level pre-intermediate students. There is plenty of opportunity to differentiate learning according to your students’ levels and needs. Each lesson includes Reading comprehension Speaking activities - pair work Vocabulary building activities Review and practice of present simple tense Understanding the structure of simple Information Reports Writing an Information Report - 2 Options - 1. very guided or 2. supported Language, topics and presentation suitable for adults For complete details see the description of each individual product.
