AI is not all bad!

Words with long a sound - aihave your students read through the sentences and fill in the spaces using the 'ai' words from the word bank. This resource will help children read and spell words with the long vowel a sound. We use 'ai' in the middle of words including train, rain, paint, grain, wait, tail, waist, etc. What is a cloze activity? A cloze worksheet is a useful activity to improve a child's reading comprehension and grammar skills. Words are removed from the text for students to fill in as an exercise in reading comprehension. I am one of the content developers at primaryleap.co.uk. This resource can be used for home learning or in the classroom. I hope you find it useful.

This is a breakout task connected to my PPT - AI The Moral Panic. This is the last discussion task where students are asked to consider who would benefit from a Moral Panic about AI with some specific examples. Students discuss some images related to AI and its effects on people, professions, businesses, governments and society. They are given some questions to help start the discussion.

worksheet summary
Title: Working with AI – Reading, First Conditional & Vocabulary Practice (B1-B2)

Description:
This worksheet explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is affecting different jobs today and how it may influence the future of work. The reading text is presented as six mini-interviews with professionals — including a teacher, electrician, welder, and nurse — making it relatable and practical for students in technical schools or those preparing for the Maturita exam.

The worksheet includes:
 Vocabulary matching and gap fill
Work-related phrasal verb matching and usage
 Grammar focus on the First Conditional with a clear explanation
 Grammar correction and sentence creation tasks
A speaking activity where students interview a classmate and report their answer using the target grammar

Designed for B1–B2 learners, this worksheet is especially useful for conversation practice and Maturita-style preparation.
No L1 is included, but it can easily be adapted with translations for additional support.

Using AI at work (first conditional)

Artificial intelligence, commonly known as AI, is becoming very popular in modern society. It has many advantages that make our life easier and more convenient in different ways

AI, a blessing or a curse

This B1-level worksheet explores the idea of artificial intelligence becoming a reflection of our own personality. It includes a simplified article of around 600 words and two follow-up activities. First, students answer comprehension questions to check their understanding of the text. Then, they move on to discussion questions designed to encourage speaking and critical thinking. The article explains how personalized AI can start to act like a supportive friend—or even influence us, like the classic image of an angel and devil on our shoulders. A humorous black-and-white cartoon in the style of a vintage newspaper editorial supports the theme visually and makes the topic more relatable. This resource is ideal for lessons about technology, identity, modern communication, or ethical decision-making.


Is Your AI Becoming Like You?

ESL Lesson Plan for B2 about AI and how it will change the future focusing on reviewing future tenses, idiomatic expressions and a lot of speaking practice. 
Based on YoutubeVideo by Mike Walsh Futurist Keynote

How AI will change the future

The series "For or Against" is intended to stimulate discussion for advanced students. Before the teacher gives the students the worksheet, they should make a list together on the board. Then they can discuss in pairs, or in small groups, the statements of the worksheet. There is always a page that brings vocabulary to discuss and argue.
