NOTE: if you don't have enough stationery items for everyone you can use flashcards in a
bag instead
1. Introduce the actions vocab
Have everyone sit so they can see the table you are going to use. Before class, put the
following stationery items in a bag: pencil, pen, book, glue, crayon, ruler, eraser (GB: rubber),
scissors, pencil case, stapler, pencil sharpener, tape.
First, hold up the bag and teach / elicit and chorus the word "bag". Then take out the first
item from the bag (e.g. a pencil) and elicit / teach and chorus the word. Place that object on
the table. Do the same for all the objects, each time placing them in a line on the table.
When all the items are on the table, point to each in turn and elicit the item.
Next, put students in pairs. Each pair should have one bag of the stationery objects
between them (if you don't have enough for everyone you can use flashcards in a bag
instead). One of the students should place different items around the room and then ask
his/her partner to collect each item and place into his/her bag using the structures:
instead). Explain that they have to listen carefully and take out each item in the order of the
items in the song and place them in a line, in the correct order, on their desk. Play the
song and then check the order of everyone's items after the song has finished (you can use
the song poster for this). You may want to do this activity 2 or even three times until
everyone can get the order right.
Lyrics for the "What's in your Bag?" song Gestures for the "What's in your Bag?" song
Chorus play the song and have students listen and take out each
item of stationery as it is sung and place the items on
Verse 2: their desk in the correct order (you can check by using
Do you have crayons? the song poster). This can be quite challenging, but good
Do you have a ruler? fun! You may want to play the song two or three times
Do you have *an eraser? to give everyone a chance of getting the correct order.
Do you have scissors?
Chorus
Verse 3:
Do you have a pencil case?
Do you have a stapler?
Do you have a pencil sharpener?
Do you have tape?
Chorus
Start by saying to one student, "Collect the (pencils) and give everybody a different pencil.".
Do the same for all of the objects (using different student to distribute them), so by the end
everyone has a bag full of stationery which isn't theirs.
Everybody now has to find their own stationery. Get everyone to stand up and mingle,
using the structure:
As everyone mingles they have to swap their objects (each student cannot have two or
more of any one item) and continue until their bag is full of their own items.
Teacher: "What's in your bag, Jamie?" (reading from page 2). What do you think he has in
his bag?
Students: pencils, crayons? (etc. - guessing)
Teacher: Ok, let's see... (turning to page 3) ... Oh look! What are these?
Students: Pencils and pens!
Teacher: Yes, that's right! (reading from page 3) "I have pencils and pens". What else do you
think he has in his school bag?
Get the students really involved in the story by asking lots of questions (e.g. eliciting the
objects and their colors) and getting everyone to guess what items he will pull out next.
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: "Stationery Matchup 3" worksheet.
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.

Lesson:
Pets & Possessions
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Talking about different pets and possessions (using "I have ...")
Structures: "Do you have any ?"
"I have ..."
"Yes, I do / No, I don't"
Target Vocab: pets, a dog, cats, hamsters, rabbits, goldfish, mouse/mice, turtles,
parrots, horses, elephants, 1-10
Notes:
This fun lesson covers three different objectives: Numbers 1-10 (review), pet vocabulary and
using the verb "have" for possession / ownership.
IMPORTANT: You should have already taught the Numbers 1-10 lesson at some point
before this lesson - these numbers will be reviewed in this lesson.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "My Pet" or "My Dream Pet" worksheets
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Before class, write each of the numbers 1-10 on cards in marker pen (so you'll have a card
with "1" written on it, another with "2", and so on up to "10"). Prepare enough sets so that
each group of 3 or 4 students has a set of number cards.
Start by getting everyone to stand up and count in time with you the numbers 1-10,
holding up fingers for each number. Start slowly and get faster and faster. You can
even try some count downs from 10-1.
Next, Play "clusters". Say, "Get into groups of 3!". Everyone must grab someone and
try and make a group of 3 people. Do this with lots of different numbers, although
this will depend on the number of students in your class.
Next, put your students into teams of 3 or 4. Give each group a set of number cards
(explained above) and get each group to race putting them in the correct order.
With the number cards on the desk/floor, tell your students to move them around so
that they are shuffled well (but still face up). Give everyone 10 seconds to
remember where the cards are. Now say "Turn over the cards". When everyone is
ready say, "Ok, touch number 6". Everyone must touch the card they think is
number 6. Then allow them to turn the card over and check. Continue with all the
other cards.
Now collect up all of the number cards by having students race up and bring you
different numbers.
Finally, have everyone stand up and sing "The Numbers Song" (from the Numbers 1-
10 lesson) doing all of the actions.
Your students will probably already know some of the animal vocab (e.g. cat and dog), so
rather than just holding up each picture you can play "Flashcard Reveal": take the first
flashcard and place it behind the pack of the other cards, so it is hidden from view. Slowly
push the flashcard up so that the picture is revealed, bit by bit, to the class. Encourage
everyone to shout out what they think it is until someone gets the right answer. It is ok if
students shout out the word in their language if they don't know it but make sure you
teach the English word. Chorus each word three times and stick onto the board.
Once all of the cards are on the board, chorus them one more time. Then point to one
picture and elicit the word, then write it clearly under the card.
4. Teach the structures "Do you have (any) ..." and "I have ..."
If you have any photos of your pets (even from years ago) it would be fun to bring them to
class show the photos to the class and as you do use the structure "I have" to say what
pets you have (e.g. "I have a pet dog"). If not, no problem, well just use the flashcards
instead.
Point to a card and then point to yourself. Say, "I have a pet (dog). His/ Her name is ...".
Draw a picture on the board of a house, a stick person (you) and the pet (a dog). Point to
the stick person and say "This is me". Then point to the house and the animal and say "This
is my house", "This is my pet dog, Momo" (for example). Maybe add a few of animals to the
picture (e.g. a hamster, a parrot) to get the idea across. The point of this is to make clear
that pets are animals we have at home (and not in the zoo, etc.).
Each time you add an animal to your picture, ask some students "Do you have pet (dog)?"
and elicit "Yes, I do / No, I don't". If a student says yes, ask what their pet's name is.
Depending on the level of your students, ask some other questions about their pets, such as
if they are large or small, colors, favorite food, etc.
Finally, pick out some students at random, choose an animal from the cards on the board,
and ask them if they have that pet (e.g. "Do you have a pet mouse"). The elephant is there
for fun dont be surprised if students say they have one but look at them disbelievingly!
If you have a large group (more than 10 students): invite 10 students to come to the
font of the class and stand in a line facing the rest of the class. Give each of them
one of the flashcards but don't let anyone see what the picture is. They can each
look at their own picture but mustn't show it to anyone else. The teacher starts by
saying to the first student "Do you have any pets?". Encourage the student to say
"Yes, I do" and then to do the action of the animal on his/her card (e.g. a cat
meowing, and licking its paw, etc.). Then say "Do you have a cat?". If correct the
student holds up the picture so everyone can see and says "Yes, I do". Then invite
members of the audience to ask the other students and guess what animal they have,
using the correct structures. It is great fun to see the animal impersonations and to
guess what it is!
If you have a small group (less than 10 students). Give everyone one of the
flashcards but don't let anyone see what the picture is. They can each look at their
own picture but mustn't show it to anyone else. The teacher starts by saying to the
first student "Do you have any pets?". Encourage the student to say "Yes, I do" and
then to do the action of the animal on his/her card (e.g. a cat meowing, and licking
its paw, etc.). Then say "Do you have a cat?". If correct the student holds up the
picture so everyone can see and says "Yes, I do". Then invite other students to ask
and guess what animal they have, using the correct structures. It is great fun to see
the animal impersonations and to guess what it is!

"Which new pet would you like?" section, so they have something to answer everyone
can answer this even if they already have pets.
When everyone has finished, tally up on the board the number of pets everyone has to find
out which is the most popular pet. Also, find out which new pet most people would like.
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: For homework, give out the "My Pet" or "My Dream Pet" worksheets.
A good idea is to give our the "My Pet" worksheets to students who have pet and the
"My Dream Pet" worksheets to students who don't have any pets. It is worth giving a
model answer to this writing task, giving information such as the pet's name, age, size,
colors, favorite foods, etc.
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.

Lesson:
Places & Where We Live
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Talking about where animals and people live
Structures: "Where do you live?"
"Where does (a cow) live?"
"I live (in/on) ...", "It lives (in/on) ..."
Target Vocab: fish, cow, bear, camel, bat, duck, goat, hippo, sea, farm, forest, desert,
cave, lake, mountain, river, city, town, village, countryside
Notes:
This lesson practices the structures of "Where do you live?" and "I live ...", introduces
animals and places vocabulary and shows how to use the prepositions "in" and "on" for
places. It ends with a fun class poster craft activity.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "Where do you live? Write" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Start by modeling: look at a flashcard but don't show anyone. Then act out that animal (also
doing sounds), for example, walking on all fours saying moooo! (for cow). Students can
put their hands up if they know the answer. Select a student if he/she answers correctly
he/she can do the next animal show a flashcard and have them do the action. Again, the
student who answers correctly can do the next animal. Continue until all the animals have
been guessed.
Finally, stick the flashcards on the board. Put everyone in pairs to take turns in acting out
and guessing the animals.
Next take the places flashcards and stick them randomly onto the right-side of the board.
You are creating a matching activity on the board students will need to match the places
to where the animals live.
Start with the first animal (e.g. a cow) and say "Hmm. Where does a cow live?". Gesture to
the places pictures on the right. Point to the "sea" flashcard and say, "Does a cow live in the
sea?". Make it obvious that this is a crazy idea. Try pointing to a few more places flashcards
until everyone has told you the correct card (a farm). Hold the farm flashcard up and chorus
it 3 times. Place the farm flashcard next to the cow flashcard and write next to them, "A
cow lives on a farm" and chorus 3 times.
Then, select a student to come to the board and stick the correct place flashcard next to the
2nd animal. If correct, praise the student and ask him/her to sit back down. Chorus the
place 3 times, write the sentence on the board and chorus that 3 times. Continue until all
the animals have places flashcards next to them.
Board layout:
You should still have 4 places flashcards remaining on the right-side of the board: city, town,
village, countryside.
Under the last animal flashcard draw a stick man. Say, "I" and point to yourself. Point to
each of the remaining places flashcards and chorus them. Stick all 4 next to the stick man
and write 4 sentences (I live in a city, I live in a town, I live in a village, I live in the
countryside). Chorus all four sentences. Then, say where you live (e.g. pointing at the town
flashcard say "I live in a town"). Then go around the class, asking student where they live
and having them all use the correct structure. Help out with the meanings of these words
(e.g. a city is very, very big, a village is small, etc. you can use place names familiar to your
students, such as "Tokyo is a city").
Now that you have all of the vocab and structures on the board, lets practice. Put all
students in pairs. Student A says an animal (or the word "I") randomly, and their partner
has to say the sentence (reading from the board). For example:
Get students to swap roles after each sentence. After a few minutes, explain that the
students are going to test each other. Pairs sit facing each other one student with his/her
back to the board. The other student says an animal and listens to their partner saying the
full sentence (he/she should help and correct if necessary). Make sure all students have a
go at being tested.
Now for the game: the first "player" from each team will have to race to find the correct
cards and stick them on the board, according to your instructions. For example, shout "The
bat lives in a cave". The players from each team will run to their flashcards on the floor and
turn them over until they find the "bat" and "cave" flashcards, then run to the board and
stick them next to the sentence "A bat lives in a cave" (from point 2 above). Make sure that
they leave all the flashcards on the floor turned face down.
Then continue with other students. Each time, the first student to place the correct
flashcards next to the correct sentence on the board wins a point for his/her team.
Alternative #1: for fun, do silly sentences, such as "The hippo lives in a forest".
Alternative #2: instead of putting the cards next to the sentence on the board, erase the
sentences before starting the game. Each student then has to find the correct cards, put
them on the board, and write the sentences correctly.
Lyrics for the "Where Do You Live?" song Gestures for the "Where Do You Live?" song
Chorus
Verse 3:
I live, I live, I live in a city.
I live, I live, I live in a town.
I live, I live, I live in a village.
I live, I live, I live in the countryside.
After everyone has drawn and cut our their pictures, get them to work together to glue the
pictures onto the poster. For example, the student who created the bear and the student
who created the forest will have to make sure they stick their pictures together so the bear
is on the forest picture.
Finally, have the students draw speech bubbles next the pictures they have made and write
inside the speech bubbles where animals live (e.g. "I am a fish. I live in the sea").
Put the poster on the wall and give lots of praise as you go talk about their pictures. In
future lessons, you can use this wall poster as a review exercise.
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: "Where do you live? Write" worksheet.
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.

The Rainbow Song before this one. Prepare the following pieces colored paper (origami
paper works great) before class:
Start by holding up the red piece of paper and elicit the color. Chorus the word and then let
some students touch the paper as they say the word. Do this for all the review colors in the
order of The Rainbow Song. Now, lay the colors on the floor and have everyone sit on the
floor in front of you facing the colors. Play the song and sing along, pointing at each color as
it is sung.
Finally, hold up each of the new vocab colored papers (brown, white, black), chorus and
pass around the class with students saying each word as they pass the paper.
Now model the game: say "Touch green!" and show everyone how you look around the
walls for the green paper, then run and touch it. Encourage your students to do the same.
Now have everyone stand up in the middle of the room. Say different colors as your
students run around touching the colors.
Then point to the land in the picture and chorus "land" 3 times. Say "Lets touch the land!"
and crouch down and touch the ground, with everyone else following along.
Next, line everyone up and shout out instructions "Touch the sky!", "Touch the land!" with
everyone jumping and crouching down. Make a game of it by going quickly but sometimes
calling out sky or land twice in a row.
Next, show the first flashcard (e.g. sun). Ask what it is (elicit if required) and chorus. Also,
elicit the color. Then ask if it belongs in the sky or on the land. Finally, give the card to a
student to put into the right envelope. For example:
Take one of the envelopes and slowly start pulling one flashcard out, bit by bit. Encourage
your students to guess and shout out what they think it is until it is guessed correctly. The
person who guesses first gets a high-five from the teacher! Do this with all of the flashcards
in both envelopes.
Next, spread the flashcards, face up, over the floor and get everyone to stand up. Shout out
"Jump on the (mountain)". The first student to jump on the correct flashcard wins a point.

Lesson:
Jobs
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Asking about jobs and saying 12 different jobs
Structures: "What do you do?"
"Im a "
"My dream job"
"I want to be a ..."
Target Vocab: farmer, bus driver, doctor, teacher, dentist, police officer, chef, hair
dresser, nurse, soldier, fire fighter, student
Notes:
In this lesson students will learn 12 words for jobs and the structure "What do you do?".
The jobs in this lesson are familiar to kids of all ages, so this can be taught to even young
kids.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "Jobs Match 2" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
NOTE: You'll notice that one of the jobs is "student". Although not technically a job, it is
perfectly appropriate to answer the question "What do you do?" with "I'm a student".
Now you are going to do actions for each job and your students will have to guess what job
it is.
Start by looking at the first flashcard (don't show anyone) and do one of the below actions.
Perhaps start with an easy one, like hairdresser, chef or bus driver. Encourage everyone to
shout out their guesses at this stage it is fine if students shout out the answers in their first
language you can correct and teach the new vocab as you go.
As each job is guessed, stick the flashcard onto the board and chorus the English word 3
times. Continue until all of the job flashcards are on the board.
Next, give everyone a job flashcard make sure you have enough flashcards to give one to
each student. Say to one student "What do you do?" and motion towards their card elicit
"I'm a (soldier)" - whatever the flashcard is that s/he is holding. Write on the board:
Chorus each sentence three times. Then do a quick practice by asking some students "What
do you do?" and have them say the job of the flashcard they are holding. Also, have
students ask you and other students, until everyone is comfortable with the structures.
Now for the game. Get 2 students to stand up to model the game. Start by playing "Rock,
Paper Scissors". The winner gets to ask the loser "What do you do?" and the loser must
reply "Im a ..." (saying the job on their card). Then the loser gives his/her card to the
winner. Ask another student to come and model with the winner: now one student has 2
cards and the other 1. They play "Rock, paper, scissors", say the structure and the loser
gives his/her card to the winner. The aim of the game is to collect as many cards as possible.
If a student has no cards left, that is fine - s/he can still play: if they win a game, they get a
card, if they lose they remain with no cards (and do not say the structures).
Once everyone has got the idea, have all students to stand up and hold their flashcards. Get
everyone to pair up and play. As soon as they have finished they must find another person
to play with. Everyone mingles around the classroom playing "Rock, paper, scissors", saying
the structure and winning or losing cards. After 5 minutes stop the game. The winner is the
student with the most cards. This is a really popular game with my classes!
The first time you play the song, put up the What do you do? (The Jobs Song) song poster on
the board. Quickly elicit the vocab. Play the song and sing along doing the gestures, as
described below in "Gestures and activities for "What do you do?". Play 2 or 3 times.
Lyrics for "What do you do?" Gestures and activities for "What do you do?"
Do - do - do - do! You can do either do gestures as you sing and dance along, or
Do - do - do - do - do - do! use flashcards for a listening activity.
Do - do - do - do!
Verse 3:
What do you do?
I am a nurse.
What do you do?
I'm a soldier.
What do you do?
I'm a fire fighter.
What do you do?
I'm a student.
Do - do - do - do - do - do - do!
guess what your dream job is. It doesn't have to be one of the jobs from the song - I always
use "astronaut".
Then give out the worksheets and have everyone draw their dream job and write the word.
As they are drawing, go around the room asking questions and giving lots of praise and
encouragement. When everyone has finished, get each student in turn to hold up their
picture and say "I want to be a/an ". For higher level students you can ask them some
questions, such as "Why do you want to be (a doctor)?"
Idea: You can have everyone stick their worksheets to the wall or notice board under the title
"Our Dream Jobs". You can then use the pictures in future classes to review the vocab.
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: "Jobs Match 2" worksheet.
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.

Lesson:
Past Tense Activities - Regular Verbs
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Talking about yesterday using past tense regular verbs.
Structures: "What did you do yesterday?"
"Yesterday, I ...(verb+ed")
Target Vocab: yesterday, today, tomorrow, fantastic, great, played with my friends,
painted a picture, walked in the park, watched TV, jumped in puddles,
played a game, kicked a ball, danced.
Notes:
In this lesson students will practicing using the past simple tense with some common regular
verbs.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "Past Regular Verbs" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Take a calendar and sit down with your students looking at it it won't be long before
everyone takes an interest in what you are doing. If you have already taught days of the
week and months, point to different days and months and ask what they are. You can also
ask students to show you on the calendar when their birthdays are, Christmas and other
holidays.
Next, point at today's date on the calendar and ask, "What day is this?". As well as the
actual day (e.g. Wednesday) teach "today". Then point to the days before and after today's
date and teach "yesterday" and "tomorrow".
Now demonstrate: jump one step back and shout "yesterday". Jump one step forward onto
the rope and shout "today". Then jump one step forward, in front of the rope and shout
"tomorrow". Then get everyone jumping, backwards and forwards as everybody shouts
together "yesterday today tomorrow today yesterday today tomorrow today
etc.". Keep going, getting faster and faster until it gets too quick to keep up.
Next, you are going to do the same thing, but the teacher is going to say the days randomly.
Everyone has to listen carefully and jump into the correct position according to the day the
teacher shouts:
As you do this, try and trick people by saying the same day twice and go at different speeds.
As students make mistakes they have to sit out of the game until there is only one left, who
is the winner. Its a really fun game and you can play this a few times.
3. Teach vocab for verbs and the regular past tense form
Get everyone to sit down. On the board write "Yesterday, I ". Look like you are thinking
and say to yourself "Hmm. What did I do yesterday?". Then draw a few things which you
(may or may not) did yesterday, e.g. watched TV, kicked a ball, played a video game, etc.
Make sure they are regular verb activities and try and use some from the song. As you are
drawing the pictures get students to shout out what they think each one is and write the
simple tense form under each picture (watch TV).
When you have 3 or 4 pictures on the board take a different colored marker pen/chalk.
Underline "Yesterday" and write "ed" onto the end of the verbs (e.g. Yesterday, I watched
TV). Then chorus each of the sentences (e.g. "Yesterday, I watched TV").
Spread the flashcards out, face up, on the floor or a table and get everyone to gather round.
Start off by saying, "Yesterday, I " and select a flashcard and stick it to the board. Then get
each student to pick a flashcard of something they did yesterday and also stick to the board
if you have a small class, get students to choose more cards try and aim for about 10-15
cards and make sure the cards for the song vocab have been selected.
Your board should now be full of flashcards. Your students will probably know some of the
verbs from previous lessons and other words they can now learn. Start by touching one
card and elicit or teach the verb with the "ed" ending and write the word under the card.
Chorus the word 3 times and then move onto the next card. Go through all the cards, at a
brisk pace so no one gets bored.
Next, give out the "What did you do yesterday? Survey" worksheet. On each line, get
everyone to copy 12 verbs in the past form from the board (e.g. "painted a picture",
"watched TV"). This sheet will be used in the next stage of the lesson.
Finally, with all of the cards and words on the board, point at a card randomly and get
everyone to shout out the word. Go quickly through all of the words. Then, have everyone
close their eyes. Remove a card and erase the word. Then shout "Open your eyes!" and ask
the first student who puts their hand up to say what the missing verb is. If correct, that
student can come up to the board and remove the next card (while everyone else closes
their eyes), say "Open your eyes!" and select the first student who puts their hand up.
Continue until off of the cards have been removed from the board.
When everyone has completed their surveys, pool the answers to find out which of
yesterdays activities were the most common.
Lyrics for "Yesterday was a Great Day!" Gestures and activities for "Yesterday was a Great Day!"
Chorus: The gestures are simple and fun to do, matching the verbs

Lesson:
Past Tense Activities - Irregular Verbs: Part 1
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Talking about yesterday using past tense irregular verbs.
Structures: "What did you do yesterday?"
"Yesterday, I ...(verb)"
Target Vocab: yesterday, woke up, ate, drank, went, sang, swam, had, came back,
rode, did, put on, slept, breakfast, milk, school, song, pool, fun, home,
bike, homework, pajamas, all night.
Notes:
In this lesson students will practice using the past simple tense with some common irregular
verbs.
IMPORTANT: This lesson should be taught after the past regular verbs lesson.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "Past Irregular Verbs" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Have everyone sit in a circle. The teacher starts by spinning a plastic bottle in the middle of
the circle. Whoever the bottle points at when it stops spinning is shown one the regular
verbs flashcards (from the previous lesson) - make sure no one else sees the flashcard. That
student must then say "Yesterday I " and act out the verb on the card. Everyone has to
guess what he/she is doing and shout out the correct verb in the past tense (E.g. "jumped in
puddles"). Play until you have practiced all of the verbs on the cards.
3. Teach vocab for irregular verbs in the present and past tense form
Before class, print the following flashcards: wake up, eat, drink, go to school, sing, swim, star
jump (well use this for "have fun"), go home (use for "come back home"), ride a bike, do
homework, put on, sleep. Divide the class up into groups of 3 or 4 and divide the flashcards
between the groups.
Next, on the right-side of the board draw 12 circles. Students will be sticking the flashcards
inside the circles, so make them just big enough to fit the cards inside. Under each circle
write verbs as follows:
wake up woke up
eat my breakfast ate my breakfast
drink my milk drank my milk
go to school went to school
sing a song sang a song
swim in the pool swam in the pool
have fun had fun
come back home came back home
ride my bike rode my bike
do my homework did my homework
put on my pajamas put on my pajamas
sleep all night slept all night
Invite a student up with one of their flashcards and ask him/her to place it into the correct
circle on the board their team-mates can help. A lot of the vocabulary will have been
studied in previous lessons so your students should be able to get the correct answer for
most of the circles if not, you can help by saying "no, try again" until the student has stuck
the card into the correct circle. Keep going until all of the flashcards have been stuck on the
board in the circles.
Next, chorus each verb three times (e.g. Teacher: "wake up, woke up", Students "wake up,
woke up" 2 more times). Dont worry at this stage if your students understand why there
are two versions of each verb well come to that next.
Finally, write the word "Yesterday" at the top of the board and draw a red circle around it
(or a different color to the color of the word) and chorus "Yesterday". Point at the first
flashcard and say "Yeserday, I wake up. Is that ok? Wake up?. Try and get someone to say
the correct form "Woke up". Circle the word "woke" in red (to signify this is the correct
form of the verb to use with the word "Yesterday"). Now go through all of the remaining
verbs asking your students which is the correct form and circling the past tense version in
red.
First round: Put students in pairs. Start by modeling the activity with another student and
both sit looking at the board. Teacher starts by saying the infinitive form of a verb and
his/her partner has to say the past form with the phrase "Yesterday, I ", for example:
Once everyone understands what to do, have the pairs go through all of the verbs, changing
roles after all the verbs have been practiced so both get the chance to say the past forms.
Second round: Keep everyone in the same pairs, however one student must sit with their
back to the board. Students do the same thing but the student with his/her back to the
board must try and remember the correct past tense form their partners can help if they
get stuck. Again, change roles. Once finished, get everyone to find a new partner and try
again, one with their back to the board.
Then put everyone in small groups of 3 or 4. One person in each group starts by acting out a
verb and the other members have to shout out the correct answer using the structure
"Yesterday, I ". The first person in the group to say the correct answer can do the next
action. Continue until each group has completed actions for all of the verbs.
Next, give everyone a verb flashcard (use all the irregular verbs first). Explain that each time
you pass the balloon you have to ask "What did you do yesterday?" and when you receive
the balloon you have to say "I (ate my breakfast)" depending on the flashcard you have
been given. Both teams race, passing the balloon and saying the structures. You can play
other rounds with different rules, such as:
teams must pass the balloon without using their hands (e.g. under chins, between
knees, etc.)
teams can only tap the balloons they can't hold them in any way
teams have to kick or head the balloons but not hold
Lyrics for "What did you do Yesterday?" Gestures and activities for "What did you do Yesterday?"
Chorus: The gestures are simple and fun to do, matching the verbs
What did you do? in the song.
What did you do yesterday?
Chorus:
Verse 1: hands together, rocking your arms back and forth in
I woke up (woke, woke, woke) time with the music
I ate my breakfast (ate, ate, ate)
I drank my milk (drank, drank, drank) Verses:
And then I went to school. I woke up: stretch and yawn
I ate my breakfast: pretend to eat cereal with a spoon
Chorus: I drank my milk: pretend to drink
What did you do? And then I went to school: walking on the spot and
What did you do yesterday? waving goodbye
I sang a song: arms outstretched in a singing position
Verse 2: I swam in the pool: pretend to swim
I sang a song (sang, sang, sang) I had lots of fun: wave your hands in the air while
I swam in the pool (swam, swam, swam) smiling
I had lots of fun (had, had, had) And then I came back home: knocking on an imaginary
And then I came back home. door
I rode my bike: do a cycling motion
Chorus:
I did my homework: pretend to write
What did you do?
I put on my pajamas: pretend to put on a pajamas top
What did you do yesterday?
and button it up
And then I slept all night: do a sleeping gesture
Verse 3:
I rode my bike (rode, rode, rode)
I did my homework (did, did, did)
I put on my pajamas (put, put, put)
And then I slept all night.
When everyone has finished, go around the class asking everybody to tell you some things
they did yesterday.
Next, invite one person to volunteer to be blindfolded. Once the blindfold is on, spin
him/her around in the middle of the circle and then tell him/her to go forward and ask the
person they first bump into "What did you do yesterday?". That person needs to answer
the question, based on his/her flashcard. However, s/he can speak in a funny voice to avoid
being identified. Then the blindfolded person must guess who it is. Play so that everyone
has a turn to be blindfolded.

Lesson:
Past Tense Activities - Irregular Verbs: Part 2
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Saying the present and past forms of irregular verbs.
Structures: "What did you do yesterday?"
"Yesterday, I ...(verb)"
Target Vocab: woke up, ate, drank, went, sang, swam, had, came back, rode, did, put
on, slept, gave, wrote, read, ran.
Notes:
In this lesson students will continue to practice using the past simple tense with some common
irregular verbs.
IMPORTANT: This lesson should be taught after the Past Tense Activities - Irregular Verbs: Part 1
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "My Day Yesterday" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Youll need some string or rope (a washing line) and 12 clothes pegs (you can also use large
paper clips). String the rope across the classroom so it is at head height. Take the 12
flashcards from last lesson (wake up, eat, drink, go to school, sing, swim, star jump (well use
this for "have fun"), go home (use for "come back home"), ride a bike, do homework, put on,
sleep) and hold up the first card. Elicit the verb and the past tense version (e.g. "wake up
woke up") and peg it onto the washing line. Continue with all of the other 11 flashcards.
NOTE: You can also use the flashcards past regular verb flashcards from the previous lesson
"Past Tense Activities - Regular Verbs" (the flashcards are play with friends, paint a picture,
walk in the park, watch TV, jump in puddles, play games, kick a ball, dance)
Next, place your students into 2 teams and form 2 lines in front of the washing line, with
each student standing behind the other. You will therefore have two students at the front
of their teams. The idea is for those two students to race to the washing line and grab a
flashcard, but only using their mouths! They then race on to the other end of the classroom.
The winner will score 1 point for their team. Start by shouting out two verbs in the past
tense (e.g. slept and rode) and the first 2 students race, grab one of those cards in their
mouths and race to the finish. They should then replace the card onto the line again. The
next two students race for 2 new verbs, and so on, until everyone has had a turn. It is a
really fun activity!
give gave: hold out hands and give things to students (e.g. pens, crayons, books,
etc.)
write wrote: write on the board or a piece of paper
read read: read a book, turning the pages
run ran: run on the spot
As you elicit / teach each verb, stick the card onto the board and write the forms under the
flashcard (e.g. give gave) and chorus 3 times.
Continue at a fast pace and get faster and faster, making a game of it.
say each verb in different voices (low, high, loud, quite, monster voice, singing voice,
etc.) and students have to reply in the same voice.
split the class into 2 teams. The teacher points at a card team A says the infinitive
form and team B says the past tense form.
students all stand up. Each time the teacher points at a student to say the past tense
form. If s/he gets it correct s/he can sit down.
students all close their eyes. The teacher removes a card and then says "Open your
eyes!" the first student to shout out the missing card (in both infinitive and past
forms) wins a point for his/her team.
students must do gestures as well as shout out the past tense form of each verb.
Lyrics for "Past Irregular Verbs Song" Gestures and activities for "Past Irregular Verbs Song"
La la la la la la - La la la la la la
La la la la la la - La la la la la la
Put your students into pairs and give each pair a sheet of paper or card. On the board write
"My Day Yesterday" and get everybody to write this at the top of their sheet. Then tell
everyone they are going to stick on pictures of things they did yesterday and write
sentences. Model this by taking a magazine and finding a picture (e.g. someone riding a
bike), then cut it out and glue it to your sheet. Under the picture write "Yesterday, I rode
my bike".
Now, leave everyone to get on with the activity. Circulate and help out with vocab it is
fine for your students to use pictures requiring different verbs from the one learned in the
last few lessons (e.g. skiing, cook, etc.) it is a chance to teach students new verbs! Give
students around 10 minutes to create their posters. Finally, have each pair in turn hold up
their posters and tell the class what they did yesterday. You can pin the posters to the walls
this can be used for a review activity in your next lesson!
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: "My Day Yesterday" worksheet. Students will have to write about
what they did yesterday. This task may not be straight forward for everyone so it is
worth modelling hold up the sheet and fill in the blanks with your own answers to
show what to do. An example answer is as follows:
I woke up at 7 oclock.
I ate toast and jam for breakfast.
Then I went to school.
After school I came home.
In the evening I watched TV
and I did my homework
and I read a book.
For dinner I ate pasta.
I went to bed and I slept all night.
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.

Lesson:
Describing People (Adjectives)
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Describing people using adjectives
Structures: "What does s/he look like?", "Tell me all about him/her", "She/she
is/has"
Target Vocab: tall, short, long hair, short hair, brown eyes, blue eyes, blonde hair,
black hair, s/he is great
Notes:
A lesson on descriptive adjectives and 3rd person 'he/she' and includes a lively song about
describing your best friend.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "Describe Your Family" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
At the top of the board draw 2 circles (these will be the heads). Elicit "circles".
On each head draw a nose, ears and a mouth. Elicit each as you draw them. Then ask
"Whats missing?".
Elicit "eyes". Ask "What color are they?" and give the students the options of the
colors of markers / chalk you have. Then draw the eyes in the chosen colors with
different colors for each set of eyes (NB: its ok to have strange colors, such as yellow,
for the eyes this will just make it more fun).
Elicit "hair" and again ask "What color is it?". On one head draw long hair in one
color (for the girl) and on the other draw short hair (for the boy) in a different color.
Teach / Elicit "long / short hair".
Finally, you'll need to draw 2 bodies. But rather than you draw them you are going to
ask for 2 volunteers to do the drawings. For the girl, draw some shoes quite near the
head (so that she will be short) and for the boy draw some shoes right down at the
bottom of the board (so he will be tall). Have the students draw the bodies so that
they join the heads with the shoes. Now teach / elicit "tall / short".
Now that the completed pictures are on the board, chorus 3 times the following
sentences and point to the pictures as you do:
- He is tall.
- He has short hair.
- He has (blue) eyes.
- He has (orange) hair.
- She is short.
- She has long hair.
- She has (green) eyes.
- She has (brown) hair.
On your piece of paper, model drawing a head with eyes, nose, ears, mouth, teeth
and hair. Make it a really funny picture. Then tell everyone to draw their funny head.
Make sure they use colors for the eyes and hair.
Next show them how to fold the paper so only the neck shows (so the head is folded
behind). Then get everyone to pass their paper to a different student.
Now model drawing the body starting from the neck and going down to ankles
make it either a really short or long body and make it as funny as you can. Now have
your students draw their bodies.
Again, show everyone how to fold the paper so only the ankles are showing and
have everyone pass their paper to another student.
Finally, model drawing funny feet and get everyone to draw feet on their pictures.
Then get everyone to fold up their papers and return each piece to the person who
drew the head.
Let everyone open up their paper and have a good laugh at the pictures. Now ask
everyone to "present" their person in the drawing to the rest of the class you
model first (e.g. "This is Tom. He is short. He has pink hair, etc.").
3. Play the "Describe Your Friend" song and do the active listening worksheet
Tell the class that they are going to listen to a song about a boy and a girl. Give out either
"Describe your Friend Worksheet 1" or "Describe your Friend Worksheet 2" (worksheet 2 is
better if you cannot print out colored worksheets).
Read the instructions to the class and then play the song. As they song is playing students
should do the worksheet activity. Play the song again if required. Finally, go through the
song one more time stopping to check answers.
If everyone enjoyed the song, you can play it again and have everyone sing along (especially
as its such a catchy tune!).
Lyrics for "Describe Your Friend" Gestures for "Describe Your Friend"
Tell me about your best friend! There are no gestures for this song - a listening activity with
worksheets accompanies the song instead (see point 6
Chorus: below). However, if students enjoy the song you can
What does he look like? encourage them to sing along and dance!
What does he look like?
Tell me all about him. For the active listening activity use either of the following
worksheets:
Verse 1:
He is tall "Describe your Friend Worksheet 1" is a 'listen and
He has short hair circle what you hear' exercise.
He has brown eyes "Describe your Friend Worksheet 2" is a 'listen and
He has blonde hair draw' exercise (this is better if you can't print out the
But most of all, he is great! color Worksheet 1)
Chorus:
What does she look like?
What does she look like?
Tell me all about her.
Verse 2:
She is short
She has long hair
She has blue eyes
She has black hair
But most of all, she is great!
Finally, once everyone has finished, ask each student to describe some of their friends: Ask,
"Tell me about your friend", "What does he / she look like?". Then put students in pairs to
practice asking about their classmates.
Additional activity: Have your students ask about and describe family members (e.g.
brothers, sisters, parents, grandparents, etc.).
In class, lay out all of pictures on the floor or on a large table. Start by saying "My friend has
(short, brown) hair, he is (tall) and he has (green) eyes". Everyone should try and guess
which picture you are describing. You can also give additional clues (clothes, etc.). The
student who guesses correctly can then have a go describing someone.
Now that everyone has got the idea of the game, put student into small groups and have
them play the game together. Whilst they are playing, monitor, help and encourage the use
of the lesson structures.
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: "Describe Your Family"
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.

Lesson:
Adverbs
General:
Time: 40 mins - 1 hour
Objectives: Saying actions with adverbs
Structures: "Let's ~"
"What shall we do?"
Target Vocab: run, quickly, walk, slowly, jump, high, crouch down, low, stomp, loudly,
tip-toe, quietly, pat our heads, softly, clap, hard
Notes:
In this lesson students will use practice saying adverbs to modify verbs. It is an action-
packed lesson with lots of action activities.
Lesson Overview:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
1. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Wrap Up:
1. Set Homework: "Adverbs Write" worksheet
2. See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Lesson Procedure:
Warm Up and Maintenance:
See our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
Then stop and say, "Let's go again! This time count 1 and 2". As you snake around the
classroom, everyone shouts, "1, 2, 1, 2, ..." together in time.
Now comes the fun part introducing the adverbs. As the train is moving around the
classroom, shout out the following commands and have everyone follow what you do:
Keep moving around the class and changing the instructions. It is great fun and an exciting
way to begin the lesson.
Get everyone to stand up and find a bit of space in the room. Teacher stands at the front of
the classroom with everyone facing you. You are going to shout out the verbs from the song
and act out the verbs, with everyone following you (doing the actions on the spot):
Each time you shout out the verb, students should chorus the verb and do the action with
you, for example:
Teacher: "run"
Students: "run" (everyone starts running on the spot)
Round 1: the teacher does each activity with the students (until everyone can
understand the verbs)
Round 2: this time the teacher shouts out each action but only the students do the
actions (and chorus the verbs). Teacher watches and helps out of necessary.
Round 3: this time the teacher does the actions again and introduces the adverbs
from the song everyone must chorus each verbs + adverb and copy the teacher
(e.g. "run quickly", "pat our heads softly", "jump high", etc.)
Round 4: finally, the teacher shouts out the verbs + adverbs from the song without
doing the actions and the students chorus and do the actions. Teacher watches and
helps out if necessary.
Lyrics for "Let's have some fun!" Gestures and activities for "Let's have some fun!"
Chorus: The gestures for this songs are straight forward - simply
What shall we do? have everyone do the actions as they sing them. The 3rd
Let's have some fun! and 4th verses are faster versions of the 1st and 2nd
verses (the song tempo speeds up).
Verse 1:
Let's run, run quickly (quickly, quickly)
Let's walk, walk slowly (slowly, slowly)
Let's jump, jump high (high, high)
Let's crouch down low (low, low)
Chorus
Verse 2:
Let's stomp, stomp loudly (loudly, loudly)
Let's tip-toe quietly (quietly, quietly)
Let's pat our heads (softly, softly)
Let's clap, clap hard! (hard, hard)
Chorus
Verse 3:
Let's run, run quickly (quickly, quickly)
Let's walk, walk slowly (slowly, slowly)
Let's jump, jump high (high, high)
Let's crouch down low (low, low)
Chorus
Verse 4:
Let's stomp, stomp loudly (loudly, loudly)
Let's tip-toe quietly (quietly, quietly)
Let's pat our heads (softly, softly)
Let's clap, clap hard! (hard, hard)
Start by modeling the game: pull out one slip of paper from the verbs box and another from
the adverbs box. Then mime the action and everyone has to guess what the two words are.
The combinations can be quite strange but this makes it even more fun.
Split the class into 2 teams. Each time a student mimes the verbs + adverbs students can
shout out the answer with the first correct one winning a point for their team. The winning
student can then do the next charade. For younger students who have trouble reading, help
by whispering in their ear.
Wrap Up:
1. Assign Homework: "Adverbs Write" worksheet.
2. Wrap up the lesson with some ideas from our "Warm Up & Wrap Up" lesson sheet.
