Lesson Delivery: (main focus of the class)

I will start the lesson by giving the objectives to
the students and then I will show them a video
about Robert Swan talking about care about
environmental disaster. Then I will ask them
some questions about the video. Moreover, I will
ask them some questions about their personal
achievements, also questions in the past.
Students will make a list of regulars and
irregulars verbs to know their meanings. By the
way, I will discuss the unknown vocabulary with
my students, they will make sentences in the
past tense. Students will develop some activities
in class such as role play, games, unscramble
words, etc. Students will write a biography
about someone who achieved something
important. Students will watch and listen to
Scott Leefe taking part in a marathon in Iceland.
