Description:

Developing English requires more than grammar worksheets. These 3 lessons with activities and assessment are planned and prepared to include everything your secondary or adult English language learners need to build fluency in listening, speaking, reading, and writing!

I know you’re busy, so rest assured this unit includes: digitizing ideas for increased engagement, daily lesson descriptions for easy implementation, speaker notes with ideas for differentiation, answer keys for quick grading, and a unit assessment.

Here’s what you’ll also get:

✔ 4 slides of editable notes that save you time writing on the board

✔ 4 slides of no-prep board work for engaging class practice
✔ labeling for kinesthetic partner practice

✔ 1 worksheet that reinforces grammar concepts
✔ 1 reading text so students see how the language is used naturally
✔ 1 grammar sort with speaking extension

✔ 1 follow-up writing text where students connect the grammar to their lives
✔ 1 listening activity to enhance language acquisition

✔ 2 speaking activities to build fluency

❤️️ What teachers really love! Included at no extra cost:

✔ 1 Kahoot!, 3 Nearpods, 1 EdPuzzle

✔ 4 LiveWorksheets links

✔ A link to 2 PDF speaking activities and 2 PDF worksheets

These work perfectly for tutoring struggling learners, keeping fast finishers quiet, producing last-minute sub plans, finding ready-to-go warm-ups, or simply having extra days of practice with your class.

All this for only $1 a day? Why?  I know how hard teaching ESL students can be. Let me help lighten the load.

✏️ NOTE: This unit is only 4 days long because the next unit is the past continuous and simple past tense unit. Students continue working on this skill while adding fluency in blending tenses.
