LESSON FLOW

Stage Timing Activity

10 • Read out the verbs and then set the time limit for the matching task. Some of the verbs should be familiar. For new verbs. ask students to guess the meaning and to use a
min. dictionary to check if they have time. I Play the recording. Students listen and check their answers.
Part 1
• Teach or revise the past simple form of the irregular verbs (fell, hit, flew. sank).
• Play the recording again and ask students to repeat.

20 • Read through the examples and ask students to complete the explanations.
min. • Emphasise that a past simple action happened and finished at a certain time. A past continuous action provides a 'background' for this action. It started some time
Part 2 beforehand and was continuing to happen when the past simple action took place.
• Note that in some cases. the past continuous action stopped when the past simple action interrupted it (for example. She was flying to Australia when her
plane crashed). In other cases. the past continuous action continued after the past simple action happened (as in the third example). This is shown in the time line

10 • Students supply the correct verb forms. They can do this orally and/or in writing.
Practice
min. • Check the spelling of sitting. Remind students that when a verb ends in one vowel+ one consonant. we double the final consonant before adding -ing.
