T starts the lesson by asking the Ss to complete the following expression: Activities we usually do when traveling...Ss would answer: take photos, buy souvenirs, go to the zoo, try new food, etc. Then T shows some pictures related to activities people usually do when travel.
Two or three Ss tell T where they go on their last trips and let them talk about how they feel about it. Then T presents his own experience during the previous trip. T asks one of the best students to read it for everybody. Ss read off the shared screen and listen to the story. T asks the students if the story is described in the present, past, or future. T asks if all the information is in one paragraph only. T asks what type of information includes the first, second, and last paragraph.
T asks the students for the words that are underlined in purple to identify the correct use of Simple Past Tense ¨I year ago, I traveled to Cusco with my family for vacations. It was a very beautiful city. I ate delicious food, took many photos, went hiking, bought souvenirs, and visited new places. At the end of the trip, I felt very energetic ready to continue with my daily routine¨. T shows students that the verbs used in the story are in the simple past form.
Ss work individually to write their own story about their last trip. T shows the previous example as a hint to write providing enough and organized information. Ss will post answers on Padlet.
Ss will go to BOR for 3 minutes to comment on peers' stories and check if their partner's story contains enough and organized information. T does delayed error correction grammar if needed.
