a lesson on summer holidays containing speaking, reading and writing opportunities, along with a good range of idioms and words to add to their knowledge. This lesson is for C1 / advanced students only.

A resource consisting of 128 sentences in total for students to translate into both languages.
An activity I do before they sit their exams in June so that they recap key vocabulary at the same time they identify gaps in their learning.
These can be presented to the students as ‘fancy sentences’ that they should be using in their speaking and writing to hit the top band marks, as many of them contain nice structures our students should be using.
Theme A - 24 sentences
Theme B - 24 sentences
Theme C - 26 sentences
Theme D - 26 sentences
Theme E - 28 sentences
15 Halloween-related questions to break the ice at the start of the lesson. Students are meant to talk in pairs, then share their own or their peer’s opinions with the rest of the group.
Easily adaptable if necessary; I use this resource every year with B1 and B2 students. Give them a couple of minutes to respond, then move onto the next question. The idea is they spend a good amount of time talking about Halloween, practising their aural and spoken skills.
This task practises a range of tenses.
A very fun and straightforward game for the whole class to have fun with.
Perfect to use as revision before exams. Students don’t need plastic tokens as long as they keep a tally of their points - a good idea is for them to swap papers with another team to mark each others’ answers (avoids cheating) and then report back to the teacher who can add / deduct points from each team after every round is complete. There is a suggestion on each stage of the game on how much students are able to bet and their minimum spend, but you can easily adapt this.
The quiz covers:
regular present tense verbs
irregular 1st person present tense verbs
fully irregular present tense verbs
stem-changing verbs (present tense)
regular preterite tense verbs
irregular preterite tense verbs
near future tense verbs
