This Teacher Guide focuses on teaching the Simple Present Tense, which is essential for describing daily activities and habits. The lesson is structured to last 30-40 minutes and includes interactive components such as verb cards, pictures depicting daily routines, and worksheets. The guide encourages engagement through methods like 'Cold Calling' to promote attention, peer corrections during drills, and embedding real-life applications of the Simple Present Tense. Students will learn to name common activities, construct simple sentences, and apply grammatical rules such as the third person singular 's' rule.
