Lesson Overview
This lesson plan is aimed at C2 learners due to the very advanced content. The lesson focuses on common expressions that people get wrong, and presents many fun, engaging activities. The class is definitely challenging but we are sure it will be encouraging for students to see that even native speakers get expressions wrong all the time!
The ESL lesson plan on common phrases is focussed around an awesome video which explains the topic clearly, in a fun way. Then, there are multiple exercises that build on the theme of the class. Our favourite exercise is number 6 which explores malapropisms - an activity that we’re sure all teachers will find amusing! However, all exercises within the lesson plan are fantastic which will challenge even the most advanced students!
