Hello, everyone! Here goes my reflection on Task 2 -

The Present Perfect Tense.

I've created a lesson plan so that students could visually  trace a parallel between the Past (their prior knowldge) and the new structure - the Present Perfect (its first use), by means of a time line. To bring a little more awareness, based on the example sentences given, I'd check if students (my target here is business people) understood the basic difference by asking some questions. Then, I'd present the structure in questions, affirmative and negative sentences, and finally I would ask sts to watch a Youtube video by teacher Jennifer. See below.

Speaking Practice: The next class I'd bring more scrambled sentences or questions, so that students could unscramble them. Then, I'd invite them to ask questions of their own (I'd first brainstorm possible verbs they could use, based on the video they watched).

Reading / Writing Practice:  I'd select a number of short articles with gaps so that students could provide the correct verbs and their form.
