Lesson plan focused on how to write an effective essay in the British academic style. This lesson can be combined with short story lesson, history, and many other lesson plans. (In my lesson plans, there are notes in the ‘Materials Needed’ and ‘objectives’ boxes at the top of the lesson plan). As well as information about academic essay writing, there are small writing activities for students which break down the essay into small, manageable pieces. Worksheet is designed as a reference tool for after the class.
