Reforestation - A2 level

Reforestation
A2 level

Description

In this lesson, the learners will learn to make and use "Passive Voice". To set the context, a few pictures will be used to activate their previous knowledge since they had a text on "La Reforestation". The pre-selected grammar item is first presented to the learners, by means of a text on " la reforestation" with phrases in passive voice. A few questions will be asked which will help the teacher to have a smooth transition to the grammar section. the grammar section will be taught using a learner-centered method in which they will play an active role in learning the grammatical structure. Its rules of form and use are either explained or elicited from the learners. With an emphasis on accuracy a few exercises will follow the lesson after which responses will be verified by the teacher. Teacher control is gradually relinquished, and a speaking task is set up to encourage free production of the grammar item in context. the learners will be asked to find another eco-friendy project and to talk about it_ 5 sentences in "passive voice" must be used in their speech.
