Verb Tense Conjugation (Time allotted: 20 Minutes) Objective: SWBAT develop an understanding of the conjugation of verbs by filling out a chart and filling in the blanks of example sentences.

Quiz (5 Minutes): Ss complete Quiz 16. Ss who were not at the last class will complete the quiz as best as they can because class will review answers after. Ss will copy given verbs from PPT. Complete the quiz by filling in the infinitive, simple past, and past perfect forms of the verbs. After quiz, class reviews answers. Ss volunteer to answer for each verb

and correct answer appears on PPT


If new students show up, T will remind Ss of activity. T passes out H1 to Ss who do not have it. 5 New Verbs: Using PPT, T shows infinitive verb. Ss volunteer to provide simple past and past participle forms. T reveals answer & Ss copy correct answer (5x). Using PPT, T will review Present and Past unreal conditional forms. T will ask Ss to write 2 conditional sentences (present & past unreal) of their own using the new verbs.

Evaluation: Students will be evaluated on understanding of old vocabulary by correctly completing the quiz and comprehension of new vocabulary by conjugating verbs in sentences of their own.

TRANSITION: Nice job with the new vocabulary! Last time we talked about The Etiquette of Breaking Up and we had learned that there were four methods of breaking up with someone. Do you remember what those methods were? Exactly. Now, I want you to write about a relationship you had in the past that you had to end and whether you have any regrets of doing so.

Writing: (Time allotted: 35 Minutes) Objective: SWBAT write a paragraph about their experiences of unsuccessful past relationships with the focus on using the past unreal conditional in their writings.

Pre-Activity: T explains to the Ss what they should write about. Ss will write about a relationship that they had to end, and how they ended it. Also, they need to mention if they have any regrets. T will remind Ss of the past unreal conditional form (If I had known how she felt, I wouldnt have)

While-Activity: Ss write about their past relationships in a single paragraph (8-10 Sentences). T asks Ss to exchange their paragraphs with a partner and work together to discuss and check whether the past unreal conditional is used

correctly.

Post-Activity: T will ask Ss to read their final drafts of their paragraphs aloud. T will provide feedback as necessary.

Evaluation: Students recognition of the past unreal conditional will be evaluated based on their abilities to implementing it correctly to a paragraph.

TRANSITION: Good job class! Ok! Have you ever imagined of doing something that you could not do in real life? Interesting! The next activity talks more about these imaginary situations.

Communication: (Time allotted: 25 Minutes) Objective: SWBAT complete statements about imaginary situations with appropriate answers and then make their own statements of those situations.

Pre-Activity: T will remind Ss of Present & Past unreal conditions. which was introduced previously and will ask them if they still have questions about it. T will refer Ss to exercise A in which they will use the unreal conditional forms to complete the incomplete statements with appropriate answers.

While-Activity: Ss will write their answers for exercise A on separate sheets of paper. T will ask Ss to work in pairs and discuss their answers. Ss will take turns explaining their answers and asking their partners questions.

Post-Activity: T will ask Ss to think of three incomplete If statements and then write them on the board. Ss will read their classmates incomplete If statements and will complete them with appropriate answers. T reviews answers with the class and provides feedback as necessary.

Evaluation: Ss will be evaluated on the construction of unreal conditionals

in their speech. Assessment 1. Ss will be evaluated on quiz performance to check their comprehension of verbs in the infinitive, simple past, and past participle conjugation. 2. Ss will be evaluated on their understanding of the past unreal conditional form by their
abilities to utilize it in a writing activity.

3. Ss will be evaluated on their abilities to correctly form statements of the imaginary situations using unreal conditional forms.

Anticipated 1. Some Ss may still have difficulty with present & past unreal conditionals. T Problems may give them homework to improve their understanding of that grammar point. 2. Some Ss might be slower than others in the writing activities which can be addressed by setting up an online stopwatch.

Verb Quiz Complete the chart by filling in the infinitive, simple past, and past participle forms of the verbs.

5 Present Unreal Conditional: The present unreal conditional is used to express a present (or future) condition. We call it unreal because it tells us what would happen or how things would be if the situation were different: I don't have a car. I don't visit you often. If I had a car, I would visit you often. The present unreal conditional is made up of an if-clause (if I had...) plus a main clause with would (I would visit). If I, I would + V1 (base form) You work so hard. You're tired all the time. If you didn't work so hard, you wouldn't be tired all the time. Fur coats are so expensive. I don't have one. If they weren't so expensive, I would have one. The form of the verb in the if-clause is the same as the past tense form of the verb. There is one exception, though: the verb be takes were for all persons: I am / if I were You are / if you were He is / if he were. If I were you, I would be more careful. If you were leaving earlier, I would go with you. What time would we get there if we took the subway? Past Unreal Conditional The past unreal conditional consists of two clauses, an if clause and a would clause. If I, I would have + V3 (PP) The if-clause refers to an unreal past event or condition: If I had arrived on time... (I didn't) If it hadn't rained yesterday... (it did) The would clause describes the consequence: ...I wouldn't have missed the train. ...we would have gone to the beach. It wasn't warm yesterday. We didn't go to the beach. If it had been warm yesterday, we would have gone to the beach. An unreal past condition may have a consequence in either the present or the past. If you had listened to my advice, you wouldn't be in trouble now. (now) If it had rained an hour ago, we would have stayed inside. If it had rained an hour ago, the streets would be wet. (now)
