Grammar - The Imperative

Are you looking for a fun ready-to-teach lesson plan for your ESL classroom? Check out Valentine's Day! This challenging reading lesson plan focuses on reading comprehension skills for English language learners. Students will learn new vocabulary while learning about the origins of Valentine's Day. This is a great lesson for high school students or adult ESL students, as it mixes new vocabulary and reading skills with a mini-history lesson!

Reading is an important skill for English language learners of all ages. We all know that it’s important for English language learners to spend time on reading activities, especially if they plan to work or study in English. I’ve noticed that some of my students don’t like reading, they would prefer to work on grammar or vocabulary. What I do in these cases is remind them how much reading improves their grammar and increases their vocabulary – this usually helps!

Valentine’s Day – This lesson plan focuses on the history of Valentine’s Day. My high school students love it, although I’ve used it successfully with many other students too. Remember, you can use this lesson on any day of the year. 

If you want the teacher notes and homework assignment, head to Off2Class.com. While you’re at it, check out the Lesson Library too! We offer a range of ready-to-teach lesson plans for your ESL classes. Spend less time planning and more time teaching the subject you love!
