This lesson is designed for Beginner Adult ESL learners with a limited vocabulary. It is the 4th in a series of beginner lessons for complete beginners.
This lesson compares the form and function of the Present Simple and Present Continuous Tenses and assumes that students have already been exposed to both these tenses. It is designed to review and consolidate their prior learning. I suggest you use this lesson after you’ve spent some time on the present simple tense, such as my beginners’ lessons on Routines and Introduction to the Present Continuous tense. (details of these are below)
As in all my lessons, the language is presented in a context that is relevant to adult students with language that they will be able to use in their everyday lives. In this lesson the context is work.
This is a flexible lesson that can be used in a variety of ways:
•with a whole class,
• a small group or
• one to one
The lesson covers a lot of the elementary language
•Reading and understanding simple text about familiar topics.
•Present simple and Present Continuous tense
•Question forms and negatives
•Vocabulary of work and everyday activities
•Speaking practice –asking and answering questions
•Writing simple sentences
