Class profile: Group of 20 adult immigrant ESL students from Washington D.C., Age: Mid 20s to 50s, Level: Intermediate, Curriculum: Open: Design authentic materials Learner Needs: What do the learners need/want to learn? Learners want to learn to express themselves and understand English better through learning and practicing grammar, idioms, listening (accents, fast speakers, phone calls, television), reading, slang, speaking, study skills, verbs, vocabulary, and writing. Objectives/Aims: What will your students know or be able to do as a result of this lesson? Students will organize ideas using diagrams. Students will identify tenses. Students will use simple past, past perfect, past continuous, simple present, and present perfect continuous tenses to have conversations about their lives in 2007 and their lives now. Assumptions: What are you assuming in terms of student background knowledge? This lesson assumes students have a basic understanding of tenses, particularly past simple and present simple tenses, and how they can be used to identify when something happened. Language Analysis: What new grammar and vocabulary will this lesson target? This lesson will provide an overview of and an opportunity to practice use of past and present verb tenses (simple past, past perfect, past continuous, simple present, and present perfect continuous). Vocabulary will be related to people, places, and things that are important or Anticipated Problems and Solutions: What could go wrong? What backup plans do you have? Some students might need more prompting or assisting with language in starting conversations sharing their diagrams. While I am circulating noting common mistakes/challenges and one word from each student, I will make accommodations as needed. Materials: What materials will you use? How will you adapt them?
