Assumptions: I assume that students have understood/ are familiar
with notions such as time and tense in the English
language and they are eager to find out more things
about actions/ activities that have to do with the past.
Anticipated problems: Taking into consideration that part of the
students have a poor level of knowledge and their
motivation is rather low, the Teacher expects some of
the students (3-5) might not value their presence as
hoped for.
Procedures: brainstorming, descriptions, spelling exercises, asking/
answering to questions, the mind map (ciorchinele), dialogues.
