A person I've recently met
Ahmed is a new boy at school. He started a few weeks ago, but he already seems to have
many friends.
He's tall and slim and he's very popular. He has short dark brown hair and brown eyes.
He usually wears really beautiful clothes and he always looks
good.
Ahmed is clever, confident and he always gets good marks.
He is also outgoing and has a good sense of humour. Of course,
he tries to be friendly with everyone, but I'm not so sure he is
very honest. Also when I work with him on any task or
homework, he can be very quick-tempered. He often gets angry
for silly reasons.
I don't think Ahmed and I are going to become best friends
because we don't always get along well. However, he is good fun
to be with, and whenever we work together, we get good marks,
so that's something .

A Brave Rescue
The rescue happened while we were on holiday in Australia last year. It was really
amazing and I was lucky to get a photo of it.
I was walking along the beach with my family. There were
a lot of big waves, and it was raining and windy. There was a
man with a dog . He was walking on some rocks. Suddenly, a
huge wave crashed into them. The man was OK, but I couldn't
see his dog. After a few minutes, we saw the dog again. It was
swimming, but it went under the water a few times. Two surfers
on the beach were watching as well. As soon as they saw the
dog, they swam towards it on their surfboards.
When they reached the dog, they put it onto a surfboard.
Then they swam back to the beach. They were really brave
because the sea was very dangerous.

task.
The rescue happened while the writer was on holiday in Australia last year.
Time Past
Past simple
Clauses simple
There were a lot of big waves, and it was raining and windy.
Past Past
Qualifiers

I use:
The Past Simple: I use the past simple to talk or write about a completed event or state in
the past. Examples: I was lucky to get a photo of it./ Suddenly, a huge wave crashed into
them.
The Past Continuous: I use the past continuous to talk about an action or state that was in
progress in the past. This action or state continued for a temporary period, but not up to the
present. Example: I was walking along the beach with my family.
The Time Clauses: I use the time clause or time conjunction to join two sentences. It gives
us information about when two events happen, relative to each other. The time clauses are:
(When, while, as soon as, after, before and until). Examples: The rescue happened while
we were on holiday in Australia last year./ As soon as they saw the dog, they swam towards
it on their surfboards.
The Qualifiers: I use the qualifiers to limit or modify the meaning of another word (such as
a noun) or word group. The most common qualifiers in English are: (very, quite, rather,
somewhat, more, most, less, least, too, so, just, enough, indeed, still, almost, fairly,
really, pretty, even, a bit, a little, a whole, a lot, a good deal, a great deal, kind of, sort
of). Example: They were really brave because the sea was very dangerous.
Practice: The teacher writes the following tasks on the board and asks the learner to do it in
pairs.
Task 2: (I choose the correct word).
1- I saw the shark (while – as soon as) I was swimming.
2- (As soon as – Before) I saw a shark, I swam away.
3- (While – When) the lifeguard saw the shark, he went to help me.
4- (Before – When) coming back home, I thanked the lifeguard.
5- (When – After) I had my ice-cream, we started collecting our objects.
Task 3: (I write the correct form of the verbs in brackets "past simple or past continuous".
Then I put one line under the time clauses and two lines under the qualifiers).
Warming Up: The teacher greets the learners and makes a quick review about the last
session.
Icebreaking: The teacher reads the following paragraph to activate the learners prior
knowledge and to attract their interest. After that, he/ she sticks the following flashcards about
hobbies and asks the learners to find other hobbies.
"Outside of school and work, many people enjoy spending their free time on their
hobbies or other recreation activities. Hobbies can provide ways to develop our talents,
relieve stress, and even get exercise".
I am an avid photographer. I picked up this hobby only a couple of years ago, so it’s
relatively fresh. It started when I bought a new phone. The phone camera was very useful
and spectacular. I wanted to capture everything through that lens. I started uploading
some of these beautiful photographs on Facebook and people seemed to really like them.
This encouraged me to spend more time on gaining basic photography skills like framing
and light. There is so much to do or learn and I am enjoying myself. Photography has
enriched me with having a broader perspective and made me a keen observer. Besides
photography, I am educating myself on the basics of graphic design and editing. It’s
amazing how a hobby can lead one to so many more interests.

The teacher sorts out some words that contain the suffix "ing" and "ful". Then, he/ she asks
the learners to read it correctly. After that, he/ she highlights the rule of weak and strong
forms of auxiliary verbs.
The letter 'g' in "ing" is never pronounced. What is pronounced is the velar nasal
consonant represented in IPA as /ŋ/. Examples: everything, uploading, gaining, framing,
enjoying, having, educating, editing and amazing.
In British English, the "ful" is pronounced as "full". It represented in IPA as /fʊl/ or /fəl/
means having the qualities of; tending to. Examples: useful, helpful, beautiful, careful,
faithful, forceful, powerful, cheerful, hopeful, resourceful, etc…
Strong and weak forms of auxiliary verbs.

I like hiking in the Sahara. I think it's very amazing sport especial you hike with your
friends or family. You can spend more time with them talking about everything, it's good
to get along with your friends when you help each other during the hiking, and you can
enjoy the fresh air, beautiful sunset or sunrise, cool breeze, even you can find all kinds of
animals and plants. I love hiking in the Sahara, it doesn't mean just sports but, it means
everything about your life.

$800 to repair the car after your last accident. I'm really worried that you have become a
bad driver." Jim insisted, "It wasn't my fault. The other driver drove through a stop sign
and then she hit me. I have been very careful since the last accident. This has been the
worst day! I'm going to bed"!
Adapted from: www.englishexercises.org
1- I use the simple past to expresses completed past actions and often includes a reference
to time. Example: The most recent accident happened yesterday.
2- I use the present perfect to talk about actions which began in the past but aren’t yet
complete or actions from the recent past when no reference to time is made. And I
formed it by using the have in the present and the past participle of the main verb.
(have/ has + Stem + ed "in regular verbs" or "the 3rd column of irregular verbs").
Example: I have been very careful since the last accident.
3- I usually use the following time markers with present perfect: (just – yet – never –
already – ever – so far – up to now – recently – since and for)
Example: I have been very careful since the last accident.
Practice: The teacher writes the following tasks on the board and asks the learner to do it in
pairs.
Task 2: (I choose the correct word to complete the text).
A car accident (happened – has happed) since the early morning on the Algeria East–
West Highway. It (rained – has rained) heavily for all the night. The drivers (were – have
been) driving fast, so they (couldn't – can't) control their cars. The weather (was – has been)
bad and the road (was – has been) wet, so the accident (occurred – has occurred). The
policemen (were – have been) on the scene, but the ambulance (didn't arrive – hasn't
arrived) yet.
Use: The teacher asks the learner to do the following task.
Task 3: (I report an event or accident).
You have certainly seen a tragic accident or event on your way to school. Write a short
report or description on what you have seen using the past simple, continuous, the present
perfect and adverbs of time. This tips may help you:
1- Types of accidents
a collision = when two vehicles drive into each other.
a head-on collision = when two cars collide front to front.
Warming Up: The teacher greets the learners and makes a quick review about comparative
adjectives (short – long – irregular) (the learners saw them in M.S 3).
Presentation: The teacher sticks a picture of twins on the board and asks: (What does this
picture represent?). Then, he/ she invites them to listen to the text and answer the following
questions.
The text:
When I was a primary school pupil, I have two best friends who have two cute
names: Jad and Iyad. Jad and Iyad are twin brothers. They are very similar with
appearances for example, Jad is as tall as Iyad and Iyad is as fat as Jad. They are as flat
as a pancake. Their faces are as red as a beetroot. Although I have been making friend
with them for long time because they are as good as gold. However, I have seen some
important features which their personalities and dream are different. For example Jad is
not as talkative as Iyad, but Iyad is more intelligent than him. Jad is more friendly
than Iyad and he is less active than Iyad.
1- I use the comparative of equality to compare two things and to highlight the
equality of one term compared to another.
Example: Iyad is as fat as Jad./ Jad is not as talkative as Iyad.
2- I use the comparative of superiority to compare two things and to highlight the
superiority of one term compared to another.
Example: Iyad is more intelligent than Jad.
3- I use the comparative of inferiority to compare two things and to highlight the
inferiority of one term compared to another.
Example: Jad is less active than Iyad.
