Sentence pattern

Many modern European languages are inflected. Inflected languages usually have their own characteristics. 
Nouns have endings which change depending on whether they are, for example, the subject or object of a verb.

Inflected and Uninflected Languages

The objective of this ppt is to help explain specific elements of subject-verb agreement. It breaks down how the subject is formed and how the verbs has an important role in every sentence. This is best taught once learners have a full understanding of all parts of speech.

Teaching subject-verb agreement

What are infinitives? 

When teaching infinitives it is especially important to know what they are. Infinitives are the base form of verbs. Infinitives are often formed by placing the word “to” and then following it with a verb. For example, “to buy/to work/to shop”. Keep in mind that a bare infinitive does not have the word “to” preceding it. Sometimes English speakers use infinitives as objects in sentences. Infinitives can also be used as a subject at the beginning of some sentences; they can be used as adverbs to modify verbs as well. Finally, they can be used as adjectives and/or complements to adjectives. As the lesson progresses, you will introduce the different uses of infinitives to students. Though teaching infinitives seems difficult, this lesson makes it fun and clear.

Teaching Infinitives: A Free Introductory ESL Lesson Plan

In inflected languages, we do not depend on the word order to understand which noun is the subject of a sentence and which is the object. The endings tell us immediately. In English, the order of words is essential to the meaning of a sentence. We have to distinguish carefully between the subject-group and the verb-group (or predicate). The predicate is what is said about the subject, i.e. it is all the words in a sentence except the subject.

The Sentence and Word Order

When should you teach this lesson on possessive nouns?

Possessive nouns help identify ownership — that something belongs to someone or something else. This lesson teaches students how to use an apostrophe followed by an s (‘s) for people, time words, and without a noun. It also teaches how to add an apostrophe after a plural noun that ends in -s, or names that end in -s.

The lesson is suitable for elementary-level students and can be taught to children, teenagers, and adults.

Our ESL lesson library also includes lessons on nouns and articles that will help prepare students for this material. We recommend three lessons — Subject Pronouns (N1.1), Object Pronouns (N2.1), and The Basic Use of the Verb to be (VS1.1) — as pre-requisites.

Introduction to Voice:

Explains the concept of voice in grammar.
Highlights the importance of understanding both active and passive voice for effective communication.
Structure of Active Voice:

Provides examples and emphasizes the clarity and directness of active voice.
Structure of Passive Voice:

Details the construction of passive sentences (subject + be + past participle).
Focuses on situations where the action is emphasized over the doer.
Includes examples to illustrate passive voice usage.
Differences and Usage Scenarios:

Compares active and passive voice, highlighting their distinct features.
Discusses scenarios where each voice is preferable, such as active voice for direct communication and passive voice for formal writing or when the doer is unknown.

Understanding Active and Passive Voice in English

When to use this lesson plan?

Before you determine how to teach causative verbs, it’s important to know when to teach them. Firstly, this lesson requires existing knowledge of basic concepts. So, it is not designed for beginner ESL students. Instead, it is designed for intermediate learners that have the ability to identify subjects and verbs independently. It is a part of the Off2Class  gerunds and infinitives curriculum. 

What students will learn in this lesson?

This lesson is packed with information on causative verbs. Let, make, have and get are the most common causative verbs. In addition to this, students will practice forming and using causative verbs (verb + object + bare infinitive), (e.g. My brother let me drive his car). They will also be introduced to allow, permit and enable followed by the infinitives.  By the end of this lesson, students will be able to make logical sentences using causative verbs. This will allow them to gain insight into how to make demands, ask questions and describe services.
