Past Tenses ESL Lesson Plans

These plans take past tenses from the first encounter at A1 through to C1, where the same forms are used for effect rather than for basic meaning. Each is written on the framework that suits the stage learners are at, so the method changes as the level does.

Every plan stands on its own: take the one that matches your class and teach it tomorrow. Read down the list to see how the topic develops if you teach the same learners over a year.
