Lesson Overview

We are positive that your intermediate ESL students will enjoy this topic for conversation practice! Conversation classes are straight-forward and focus only on one thing - getting your students talking! However, as we introduce the topic with an article, we believe that a vocabulary exercise is needed for students to progress.

This ESL Animal Poaching Conversation lesson plan starts off with a thought-provoking article about rhinos. Then, students have to complete a quick vocabulary exercise to make sure they learn new words.

Thereafter, students focus solely on free conversation. They are prompted with multiple discussion questions to ensure they always have something to say. This ESL Animal Poaching Conversation class will give your students an opportunity to express their opinions about animal poaching, hunting and conservation.
