Lesson Plan Beginners Simple Present Tense

This document provides a lesson plan for teaching simple present tense to English language learners at the beginner level. The 45-minute lesson has three parts: an introductory activity using examples to familiarize students with the tense, drilling and explanation of usage, and two activities using cards and a worksheet to practice forming sentences and check comprehension. The teacher anticipates some students may struggle with third person singular verb forms and not participate fully in discussion activities. The objectives are for students to use the tense correctly and be able to ask questions.
